WHO is the center of global health diplomacy, where delegates tackle issues that shape lives and public safety worldwide. Discussions focus on disease prevention, healthcare systems, emergency responses, pharmaceutical access, pandemic preparedness, and the intersection between health, development, and inequality.
Because global health is both scientific and political, debates in WHO require delegates to merge evidence-based reasoning with thoughtful diplomacy. States must weigh public health needs, financial constraints, ethical concerns, and the practical realities of their national healthcare systems — all while coordinating on solutions that depend on global cooperation.
WHO is ideal for delegates who thrive on detail, care about real-world impact, and want to craft policies that directly affect populations worldwide.
