A challenge for Switzerland: Achieving health for all in a changing world

With the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted in September 2015, the United Nations have created a new frame of reference for development cooperation. What does this global agenda 2030 specifically mean in the Swiss foreign and development policy with regard to health? Will the new strategy for development policy, the new message on Switzerland's international cooperation 2017-2020 be able to cope with these requirements? How will the pressure to cut costs in Switzerland affect the new message? The Network Medicus Mundi Switzerland has discussed these questions in its symposium 2015 intensively and publishes some of the contributions and debates in the current MMS Bulletin.
