Navigating Global Health Architecture Reform Efforts | May 2026
New research from Seed Global Health and the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health finds the unprecedented disruption to global health financing has opened an historic window to build a more country-led, coordinated, and resilient global health system.
The research, which examines 11 major initiatives including the Accra Reset, Lusaka Agenda, WHO reform process, Gavi Leap, and emerging bilateral health agreements, assessed where reforms are converging, where tensions remain, and discusses what should happen next for the reform process.
Our analysis found growing convergence across major reform initiatives – but warned that without clearer coordination and implementation pathways, the system risks reproducing fragmentation rather than resolving it.
