Today, WHO, together with the Ministry of Health of Ukraine, presented the Vision for International Medical Partnership in Ukraine.
This strategic document outlines the key principles and frameworks for implementing international medical partnerships between Ukrainian healthcare institutions and their international counterparts - an initiative launched during the Third Summit of First Ladies and Gentlemen. The guide features the core values underlying this initiative, the role of Ukraine's Ministry of Health in establishing partnerships, opportunities for expanding collaboration beyond healthcare institutions, and the key directions on monitoring.
The partners in Ukraine embarking on a partnership journey will adapt the well-structured WHO International Medical Partnership for Improvement (TPI) model, which has been applied in over 20 countries globally.
This model supports long-term efforts to drive improvement in the quality of health services and increase the resilience of health systems.
The document was presented during an online event organized by WHO in partnership with the Ministry of Health, with financial support from Canada and within the Universal Health Coverage Partnership.
