GKEN and meeting the global health crisis
 Globally, nations are faced with a health care crisis: rising
healthcare costs that threaten system sustainability, human
resource shortages, increasingly frustrated consumers, and an
absence of shared solutions and cross-country communications.
 GKEN believes the best way to meet these global health
challenges is: Better identification of new and emerging
“better practices,” and stronger cross-border and crosscultural promotion and dissemination of better healthcare
system practices, utilizing traditional and non-traditional
channels.
