The WHO Country Cooperation Strategy (CCS) is a medium-term strategic framework for guiding WHO’s work in Romania and is aligned with Romania’s National Health Strategy (NHS) 2023–2030. The CCS identifies a set of agreed joint priorities over a 7-year period, focusing on areas where WHO has a comparative advantage to support the accomplishment of the NHS’s objectives and ensuring public health impact in Romania.

The following strategic priorities and key interventions will guide the collaboration between WHO and the Romanian Ministry of Health between 2024–2030:

1. strengthen access to, and the quality of, health care
2. strengthen the health and care workforce
3. strengthen digital health
4. strengthen the capacity for emergency preparedness
5. mitigate the risk of high-threat pathogens and improve pandemic preparedness
6. improve social determinants for health across the life-course
7. create an enabling environment for health.
