An international conference marking the fifth anniversary of the Declaration of Astana and the 45th anniversary of the Declaration of Alma-Ata, with a focus on primary healthcare policy and practice under the theme "Policy and Practice in Primary Healthcare: Striving for Excellence," is currently taking place in Astana, QazMonitor reports.

At the conference, President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev highlighted the shared commitment to enhancing global health and well-being.

I suggest that global primary healthcare could benefit from the establishment of a dedicated coordinating structure. I propose the establishment of a coalition of countries dedicated to primary healthcare, with the support of the World Health Organization.
