Social Sciences - International Org/Dev/Coop
English term or phrase: brought together
It is critical to accelerate work on the current health-related Millennium Development Goals, as well as to take action to address the mounting burden of diseases that are not included in the Millennium Declaration, including noncommunicable diseases. Moving towards universal coverage requires that work on each of the priority health problems is **brought together** by strengthening health systems. The goal of universal health coverage provides a framework for the consolidation of streams of work described above, and a clear direction for work on national health policies and strategies.

Thank you for your help!

Explanation:
It's not written very clearly, but the concept is that by strengthening health systems, all of the various efforts to combat specific health problems will be strengthened as well. The health system is an umbrella for them all. (Among other things, within a unified health system duplication of efforts is reduced.)
