Popis: This article explores some issues that regulatory bodies will face in the coming 15 years by drawing attention to three global policy initiatives: Health Workforce 2030 from the Global Health Workforce Alliance; theTwelfth General Programme of Work from the World Health Organization; andThe Road to Dignity by 2030 from the United Nations.The authors discuss how these three policy initiatives provide major opportunities for regulatory bodies to shape, rather than respond to, a rapidly changing and evolving policy landscape.The authors provide examples of how these global high-level initiatives have relevance to the core mandate of protecting the public and hopefully stimulate much-needed debate and informed solution making.The article concludes by calling for regulatory bodies to more proactively engage with wider policy initiatives to position their work in the context of driving change rather than being viewed as an obstacle to progress.
