      Health Works promoted quality health services that improve lives, create jobs, and support growth. The Universal Health Coverage (UHC) High-Level Forum 2025 in Tokyo brought together governments, international organizations, the private sector, and civil society to advance health for all, hosted by the Government of Japan with the World Bank Group and WHO.

      The Forum focused on sustainable health financing, national ownership, and stronger collaboration between health and finance leaders. Countries launched National Health Compacts to build resilient, equitable systems, and the new UHC Knowledge Hub was introduced to support capacity-building, partnerships, and evidence-based policies to deliver more money for health and more health for money.
