Global Health has been an essential working group in past C20 summits, reflecting the healthcare issues of the day. Nothing highlighted inequities, inequalities, and the limitations of our existing healthcare systems around the globe as starkly as the COVID-19 pandemic. This year, as the focus shifts from vaccination, we intend to address how to reinforce global healthcare systems and addressing gaps made more apparent by the pandemic.The C20 Integrated Holistic Health working group will comprise seven subgroups with areas of focus that include mental health, nutrition, women’s and children’s health, elderly care, holistic health approaches, One Health, and the reduction of noncommunicable diseases.

Efforts to address these concerns should take a holistic approach that addresses the physical, emotional, environmental, and social components to health. Solutions should consider the many barriers that prevent access to health care and limit individuals’ ability to lead a healthy lifestyle. Traditional medicine systems, such as Ayurveda, can play a significant role in making holistic health an integral part of the global healthcare system. Delving into these areas of focus, the working group aims to widen the discussions on different facets of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 3: Good Health and Well-Being. The discussions will bring together health professionals, educators, and leaders from across the public health landscape to formulate policies that support global health and well-being
