Thomas Bollyky, Ruth Berg, Patrick Fine, Melissa J. Kopolow McCall, Tom Boyke, Katherine Connelly
The discussion highlights the 2015 UN Sustainable Development Goals' structural shift toward integrated, cross-sectoral approaches led by entities like AB InBev, Palladium, and FHI 360 to address gaps in child mortality and non-communicable disease outcomes. Participants debate the necessary evolution from primary health care to universal health care, emphasizing the critical roles of private sector financing, data disaggregation, and new donors from China and India in achieving a "leave no one behind" framework. Ultimately, the dialogue underscores the ethical complexities of engaging industry leaders in public health strategies while advocating for local ownership, fiscal policy reforms, and stakeholder capitalism to drive measurable, sustainable results.

The Business Case for Addressing Social Determinants of Health
Joanne Kenen, Georges Benjamin, Thomas Moriarty, Ashley Perry, Lauren Shweder Biel, Emily Yu, Joanne Cannon, Lauren Schwader-Beal, Katherine Connelly, Michael Golinkoff
Moderated by Joanne Cannon, a panel of public health leaders and corporate strategists redefined the conversation around Social Determinants of Health by prioritizing the business case for intervention over traditional philanthropy. Speakers detailed scalable models such as DC Greens' produce prescription program and CVS's integrated health hubs, which leverage data-driven insights to prove cost savings through medication compliance and reduced emergency room visits. The group concluded that sustainable growth depends on transitioning funding from grants to payer reimbursement within value-based care systems, leveraging political and corporate influence to address root causes like housing instability.
