In line with its Thirteenth General Programme of Work, 2019–2025 and the related programme budget, and building on its continued and successful collaboration with non-State actors, WHO is actively engaging to support Member States’ efforts to advance the public health agenda. These engagements are reviewed and implemented in accordance with WHO’s policies and rules, including the Framework of Engagement with Non-State Actors (FENSA) adopted during the Sixty-ninth session of the World Health Assembly (resolution WHA69.10).
In accordance with operative paragraph 3(8) of resolution WHA69.10 adopting the Framework on Engagement with non-State actors, a set of criteria and principles for secondments from nongovernmental organizations, philanthropic foundations and academic institutions have been developed and submitted for approval by the Seventieth World Health Assembly, through the Executive Board.
