## The mission of the Health Security initiative is to strengthen health system resilience to climate and biological threats.

Health Security challenges including climate impacts, antimicrobial resistance (AMR), and emerging diseases undermine our economic growth and well-being, making it critical to effectively anticipate, prevent and respond to a wide variety of health shocks and stresses.In response to these risks, The Forum's Health Security initiative aims to protect economies and societies from these climate and biological threats.Through cross-sector and cross-border collaboration, we ensure partners are equipped with the knowledge, tools and networks they need to build resilient health systems.
