AmCham Almedalen 2025

The Donor landscape is changing - how are Sweden and the EU responding to global health?

American Garden
Thursday, June 26, 8:30–9:15 AM  | Stora Torggränd 3, Visby

Program Overview

Global health aid is at a critical juncture.

As countries like the United States reduce their support, healthcare systems risk being weakened - especially for vulnerable groups.

However, this shift also opens the door for new actors. Can the EU, Sweden, civil society, and the private sector take greater responsibility for the future of global health?
