Abstract
نظم المؤتمر معهد التخطيط القومي بالتعاون مع كلية الشؤون الدولية والعامة بجامعة كولومبيا وناقش العديد من القضايا منها: أهمية الصحة والتنمية المستدامة في ظل التحديات العالمية. حيث أن العالم لا يزال بعيدًا عن تحقيق أهداف التنمية المستدامة، خصوصًا الهدف الثالث المتعلق بالصحة، ويعاني مليار شخص في الدول النامية من نقص في الرعاية الصحية، مما يزيد من الفقر.
وفي مصر، يضمن الدستور الحق في الصحة، وقد تم تخصيص 10% من الإنفاق العام للقطاعات الصحية، مما يعكس التزام الدولة بتحسين النظام الصحي. كما تم تحقيق تقدم ملحوظ في بعض المؤشرات الصحية، مثل وفيات الأمهات والأطفال، بفضل المبادرات الصحية الرئاسية. ومع ذلك، لا تزال هناك تحديات مثل نقص التمويل، وغياب التشريعات اللازمة، ونقص الكوادر الصحية. وركز المؤتمر على مناقشة العلاقة بين الصحة والتنمية المستدامة من خلال أربعة محاور رئيسية: الأول يتناول دور الصحة في تعزيز التنمية المستدامة، مع التركيز على القضايا المنهجية والتجارب الدولية؛ الثاني يركز على اقتصاديات الصحة والتمويل والاستثمار في القطاع الصحي؛ الثالث يتناول حوكمة القطاع الصحي ودورها في تحسين الأداء والكفاءة؛ والرابع يركز على أوضاع الصحة في مصر، ودور المبادرات الصحية الرئاسية. وشارك في المؤتمر الأكاديميون، والخبراء، والجهات الحكومية، ومنظمات المجتمع المدني، لتعزيز التعاون وتحقيق أهداف التنمية المستدامة.
The conference was organized by the National Planning Institute in collaboration with the School of International and Public Affairs at Columbia University, discussing various issues, including the importance of health and sustainable development in light of global challenges. The world is still far from achieving the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly the third goal related to health, as one billion people in developing countries suffer from a lack of healthcare, which exacerbates poverty. In Egypt, the constitution guarantees the right to health, and 10% of public spending has been allocated to health sectors, reflecting the state's commitment to improving the healthcare system. Significant progress has also been made in some health indicators, such as maternal and child mortality rates, thanks to presidential health initiatives. However, challenges remain, such as funding shortages, the absence of necessary legislation, and a lack of healthcare professionals. The conference focused on discussing the relationship between health and sustainable development through four main themes: the first addresses the role of health in promoting sustainable development, emphasizing methodological issues and international experiences; the second focuses on the economics of health, funding, and investment in the health sector; the third discusses health governance and its role in improving performance and efficiency; and the fourth centers on the state of health in Egypt and the role of presidential health initiatives. Academics, experts, government entities, and civil society organizations participated in the conference to enhance collaboration and achieve sustainable development goals.
