ABSTRACT

Objective:

To understand the health cooperation intentions, demands, advantages and obstacles that are being experienced by countries along the Belt and Road,and to provide reference for China to deepen health cooperation with those countries in regard.

Methods:

A seminar was held at the High Level Symposium to find out about the health cooperation status among the "Belt and Road" countries, whereby the theme was "Belt and Road for Health Cooperation towards a Health Silk Road". Therefore, a survey was conducted among 217 Chinese and foreign guests who were invited to attend the seminar. 209 questionnaires were valid and the effective rate was 96. 3% after the questionnaire analysis carried out using SPSS22. 0.

Results:

Research results showed that among the respondents, 91. 7% of the surveyed foreign partners are willing to cooperate in health, while only 73. 2% of the Chinese respondents desired the cooperation. The demands for health cooperation between both countries was mainly about health industry,medical and health services, and infectious disease prevention and control. Both China and foreign countries confirmed that cooperation convenience and long-term partnership were the advantages of health cooperation among Belt and Road countries, while differences were highlighted in preferential policies. The biggest challenge was found to be the cultural differences. Among other disadvantages are the lack of communication platforms, the pressure of laws and regulations, unstable policies, etc.

Conclusions:

The willingness and broad space to cooperate in health are strong and large forboth China and foreign countries,and they are intending to put much of emphasis on health institutions,medical and health services and prevention and control of infectious diseases in the future. It is hence suggested that health cooperation should make good use of existing advantages of partnership and convenience,and overcome found obstacles in orderto deepen cooperation in the health industry.
