Introduction and Welcome

This symposium discusses the unique global public-private partnership between Unilever and the FDI, the World Dental Federation, to improve oral health. Both organisations commissioned an independent review of the three years of the partnership and main findings will be presented. The symposium opens with an expert exposition of public-private partnerships in health followed by presentation of the key review results. An important aspect of the review are case studies of selected country projects to be followed by a presentation sharing the breadth of activity in the partnership by National Dental Associations and Unilever across more than 35 countries worldwide.
