Dear Colleagues,

My name is Silvia Ussai. I am a medical doctor and pharmacologist specializing in international healthcare management, economics, and policy at SDA Bocconi. I have vast experience in pharmaceutical policies and regulations, both at the national (Italian) level and internationally, serving as a public health expert across different high-level commissions and UN agencies. I strongly believe in global partnering and science diplomacy for strengthening health systems. I am very pleased to invite you to submit your contribution for the Special Issue entitled “UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Beyond 2030 Agenda: The Role of International Partnerships and Alliances Towards Equitable Access to Care”. The subject is fully aligned with the journal’s scope, looking at the role of global partnerships (including those that are donor-driven) in supporting equitable access to advanced medical investigation and treatments, medication management, disease prevention, and early diagnosis, as well as treatment and comprehensive strategies for care.

This Special Issue aims to discuss and present healthcare outcomes and initiatives resulting from international partnerships, alliances, pilots, and/or demonstrative actions and projects. This will provide a platform for showcasing the importance of science diplomacy and exchanging best practices.

In this Special Issue, original research articles, reviews, case reports, research notes, and short communications are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:

• Pharmacology
• clinical trials
• access to medicines and vaccines
