  Abstract: To advance the high-quality development of China-Arab health cooperation, this paper systematically analyzes the prominent disparities in health development and the uneven distribution of health investment among Arab countries. The study also identifies the multi-level and differentiated governance needs of Arab countries, which cover the upgrading of digital medical services, the improvement of public health systems, the supply of medical resources, the development of traditional medicine, and the training of health personnel. The study summarizes the practical achievements of China-Arab health cooperation, including policy alignment, project implementation and capacity building. It also extracts three core characteristics of the cooperation, namely strategic coordination, classified policy implementation and cultural mutual learning. The study points out the practical challenges faced by both sides, including cultural and religious differences, unbalanced regional development, intensified international competition, and complex and volatile geopolitical situations. Based on these challenges, the study proposes systematic optimization paths. These paths include building a humanistic mutual trust system, implementing tiered and classified cooperation, and strengthening coordinated risk response. These measures provide practical reference for deepening China-Arab health cooperation and improving the level of regional health governance, while ensuring the professional and logical rigor of the research.
