Taiwan's biomedical doctors advance to Geneva to change WHO's view with actions
Countries are faced with the aging, the lack of medical resources, long-term care and telemedicine has become an international **** with the topic of concern. Taking this as a starting point, a group of enthusiastic young people from Taiwan took the initiative to enter the Cornavin station in Geneva (Cornavin à Genève) to pass on the importance of the concept of "WHO without borders" through domestic innovative technology, and to hold an exhibition there to communicate with the local people. In addition, the Biomedical Perspectives program supported the compilation of the white paper, allowing Taiwan's authors in various fields to utilize their words to exert influence, let the world know the value of Taiwan's role in the public health system, and to establish close ties with other countries to further overcome the regret of Taiwan's inability to enter into the WHA (World Health Association). With the help of local expatriates Huang Wen-ling and Lieke Hao, they actively introduced to station visitors Taiwan's recent medical developments and the results of its health policies, and sent staff to further explain the practical applications of the products on display, so that visitors could feel that the world is facing an imbalance in health resources. Taiwan has been in the midst of international diplomatic challenges for many years, but medical research and implementation have never stopped. *** With the multi-pronged approach of the health care system, national laws, and relief bills, we hope that the concept of universal health care will be y rooted in Taiwan and expanded to other countries, and that the power of Taiwan's civil society organizations will also be in the process of sprouting up.
The Taiwan Association for Global Health Diplomacy (TAGHD) is a group of civil society organizations initiated by young medical professionals who expect young people from all walks of life to commit themselves to utilizing the medical diplomacy experience and resources they have accumulated domestically, and to give Taiwanese citizens the opportunity to use their expertise to bring international attention to the issue of universal health care.

Taiwan's medical technology is a way to alleviate the inaccessibility of healthcare professionals
Taiwan's medical technology is a way to amplify the professionalism and value of healthcare professionals," said Dr. Kenneth K. Kennedy, CEO of the World Health Organization (WHO), "and it's a great way to show the world that healthcare is no longer confined to the traditional healthcare missions and the travelling community. When the theme of this year's WHO General Assembly is "Primary care" (Primary care), Taiwan happened to pass a bill related to communication and healthcare in mid-2018, so that physicians do not need to see patients in person for specific inconvenient patients, and they can complete their medical treatment via telemedicine platforms, which will enable telemedicine and psychological consultation platforms to begin to develop vigorously in Taiwan, and to improve the urban-rural gap and long-term bed-ridden patients in Taiwan. The gap between urban and rural areas in Taiwan and the problems of long-term bedridden patients and patients with physical and mental illnesses that require privacy protection, and this development potential can be applied to a wider range of applications in Taiwan's medical diplomacy in the future.

Taiwan's young people have very little power, so the power of the crowd was gathered, and through the Tsk Mass Fundraising Program, young people from all walks of life pitched in, and private sponsorships from overseas compatriots, cooperating organizations, and medical seniors, to help WHO RSF use young people's voices in a way that expects one day Taiwan to be able to get into the WHA venue.
