SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Purpose: The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), 
with support from relevant health-related U.S. Government offices, is 
charged with leading the U.S. delegation to the Group of 7 (G7) Health 
Ministers' Meeting and will convene an informal Stakeholder Listening 
Session.
    The Stakeholder Listening Session is designed to seek input from 
stakeholders to help inform and prepare for U.S. government engagement 
in the Health Ministers' Meeting. The G7 is an informal grouping of 
Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United States, and the 
United Kingdom, and it also includes participation by the European 
Commission. Each year, a different member country serves as the 
presidency of the group and hosts the meetings. The presidency proposes 
the group's priorities for the year and hosts discussions to work 
towards consensus positions and actions on those priorities. This 
year's G7 presidency is Japan, which will be hosting the Health 
Ministers' Meeting on May 13 and 14, 2023.
    Matters to be Discussed: The listening session will cover priority 
areas expected to be addressed at the G7 Health Ministers' Meeting. 
Provisional agenda items for the Health Ministers' Meeting include to:

1. Develop and strengthen global health architecture for public health 
emergencies;
2. Contribute to achieving more resilient, equitable and sustainable 
universal health coverage through strengthening health systems; and
3. Promote health innovation to address various health challenges.
