SUMMARY:Towards a Citizen-Centred Health System
DESCRIPTION:In January 2026\, The Lancet published a landmark report by the Lancet Commission on a citizen-centred health system for India — the result of five years of work begun at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. \nThe report argues that advances in biotechnology\, artificial intelligence\, and digital public infrastructure together create a historic opportunity to achieve universal health coverage in India\, drawing almost entirely on domestic resources. From vaccine manufacturing to pandemic-tracking platforms\, India’s own capabilities are the foundation of the Commission’s vision. \nDr. Nachiket Mor\, commissioner and key author\, will present an overview of the report. He will be joined by Dr. Kiran Mazumdar Shaw\, co-Chair of the Commission; Ms. Uma Mahadevan IAS\, Additional Chief Secretary and Development Commissioner\, Government of Karnataka; and Dr. Soumya Swaminathan\, Chair of the MS Swaminathan Research Foundation\, for a panel discussion moderated by Professor Vijay Chandru\, commissioner and co-chair of the report’s technology workstream. The discussion will open to audience questions. \n
