Description

The Health Sector Advisory Group (H-SAG) is a strategic coordination platform established to ensure the continuity of essential humanitarian health coordination in Jordan following the transition and discontinuation of the stand-alone Health Sector Working Group (HSWG). Acting as the primary forum for humanitarian health dialogue, H-SAG brings together key UN agencies and NGO representatives to provide strategic guidance, facilitate consensus-based decision-making, maintain engagement with the Ministry of Health and donors, and safeguard critical information sharing on humanitarian health priorities, risks, and response gaps. The group serves as a bridge between humanitarian and development health coordination structures, supporting preparedness, advocacy, and coordinated responses to emerging public health challenges while ensuring alignment with national health policies and priorities.
