In this episode, Iskra Reic, Executive Vice President, International at AstraZeneca, unpacks what it takes to build strong health systems that meet the needs of people, society, and the planet – today and tomorrow – amid surging inequities, non-communicable diseases, and climate pressures.

 

She highlights how AstraZeneca, through science and innovation, is taking action to strengthen health systems with programmes that close healthcare gaps, accelerate digital solutions, and forge strategic regional partnerships – including an expanding collaboration with Abu Dhabi. Iskra also explains why climate change is the most pressing threat to global health and the urgent need to decarbonise health systems.
