The two countries agreed to deepen collaboration in food and health security, focusing on improving access to healthcare services, nutrition, disease prevention, and public health systems.
The healthcare initiatives include promoting sustainable practices to support community health and leveraging technology for more efficient healthcare delivery and monitoring. India and Ethiopia aim to strengthen healthcare infrastructure, enhance preventive care programs, and share technical expertise to improve population health outcomes.
These discussions form part of a broader Strategic Partnership framework that also includes capacity building and Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI). The focus on health security underlines the shared commitment of both nations to build resilient healthcare systems, ensure evidence-based interventions, and improve community health and well-being.
By integrating health security into the broader development agenda, India and Ethiopia are working to strengthen not just healthcare delivery but also preventive and primary care programs, ensuring long-term sustainable health outcomes for their populations.
