10 years ago, in 2013, the Health Promotion Administration (HPA) was established by upgrading and reorganizing the previous National Health Bureau (NHB). During these 10 years, the HPA has been upholding the concept of “all- around protection of the public’s health,” with the mission of improving the national health and developing up-to-date public policies to meet the nation’s various challenges, from infertility, aging society, to new disease patterns. 2019 saw the COVID-19 spread across the world. In Taiwan, under the leadership of President Tsai, the central government and local public health partners worked together to timely embark on disease prevention work. By overcoming a wide range of challenges, we have put up a good fight against this deadly pandemic. At this moment, with the country facing the challenge of rebuilding a new life in the post- pandemic era, the HPA will embrace its new responsibilities in sustainably promoting people’s health.
