The PSI Health and Care team is inviting health and care affiliates to attend the Regional Briefings on the WHA. The objectives of this meeting are:

1. To share how the global health governance bodies work (World Health Assembly, what are WHO Resolutions, how are they approved, etc.) and its importance to build workers’ power and raise trade union voices  globally;

2. Share opportunities to include key trade union demands in WHA resolutions, that will be considered during the Assembly in May 2025, to be held from May 19th to 27th.

The briefings will be held in two sessions to accommodate time zones:
