1 Purpose and Objectives of the "Global Health Vision"
(1) Realization of the mission of the MHLW
Promoting global health efforts will not only benefit the international community
but also help resolve domestic issues and lead to promoting health and well-being in
Japan.
The concept of global health has become firmly established as it is recognized that
a wide range of stakeholders, including national governments, international
organizations, private sectors including businesses, academic institutions, NGOs and
civil society groups, need to work together across borders in a multilayered manner to
address factors that affect health and well-being domestically and globally.
Global health is one of the most important issues for the international community,
not only because it is directly related to health and well-being, but also because it
affects the peace and prosperity of nations and, moreover, from the perspective of
coexistence of human society and the Earth. The promotion of global health is not
only of public health significance, but also of great importance from the perspective of
diplomacy, economy, and security, as well as stability of the international community,
protecting the people and contributing to health and well-being in Japan.
In the 21st century, international collaboration has become indispensable in a wide
range of global health issues, including response to infectious diseases such as
pandemics and drug resistance (Antimicrobial Resistance: AMR), pharmaceutical
development, training and securing health workforce, and addressing the impact of
climate change on health. Furthermore, with the rapid increase in the importance of
digitization and data science in the health, medical, and long-term care fields,
international collaboration is becoming increasingly important in promoting various
reforms in the health, medical, and long-term care sectors.
The mission of the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW) is "to improve
and promote social welfare, social security, and public health, to improve working
conditions and other working environments for workers, and to secure jobs, in order
to guarantee and improve the lives of the people and contribute to economic
development" (Act for Establishment of the MHLW). In order to fulfill this mission, the
MHLW needs to address global health while moving beyond its traditional inwardlooking perspective.
In this century, global and domestic health issues, including COVID-19 and AMR,
