The participants in the High-Level Dialogue will discuss shared priorities and matters of mutual interest in health, such as cross-border health threats, cancer prevention, treatment and care, mental health and cooperation in mitigating climate change. They will exchange best practices and discuss areas for further cooperation.

This is the second edition of the Dialogue, following its inaugural meeting in November 2021. The first Dialogue took place in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, and demonstrated the importance of cross-border cooperation on health.

A joint statement following the conclusion of the meeting will be available online later today.
