I had the privilege of attending an enlightening panel discussion featuring esteemed experts in the field of public health. The event was highlighted by a captivating fireside chat with two distinguished guests: - H.E. Hanan Mohamed Al Kuwari, Minister of Public Health, Qatar - David Kershenobich, incoming Minister of Health, Mexico The conversation primarily focused on the current state of programming for Metabolic Associated Steatotic Liver Disease (MASLD) and Metabolic Associated Steatohepatitis (MASH) in their respective countries. However, the discussion expanded to encompass broader global health challenges. **Key Takeaways:** 1. **MASLD/MASH Programming:** Both ministers shared valuable insights into their countries' approaches to addressing these liver conditions. 2. **NCD Prevention:** The conversation emphasized the critical importance of preventing non-communicable diseases (NCDs) on a global scale. 3. **Urgent Health Priorities:** Special attention was given to the pressing need to tackle obesity and diabetes, two major contributors to the global disease burden. 4. **Multifactorial Risk Management:** The panelists stressed the importance of comprehensive strategies to reduce NCD burden and improve overall health outcomes. This event reinforced the interconnectedness of global health challenges and the need for collaborative, innovative approaches to address them. It was truly inspiring to witness such high-level dialogue on these crucial issues shaping the future of public health worldwide. #GlobalHealth #NCDPrevention #MASLD #MASH #PublicHealthPolicy
