This paper provides an analysis of Andrija Štampar's activities after World War II on the establishment of effective international health. Analyzed archival materials have confirmed with numerous evidence that Štampar as the president of the Interim Commission of the World Health Organization (WHO) played a crucial role in the establishment of the ideological starting points and organization of the WHO system, which remain relevant to date. Apart from the strategic foundations, it has been shown that his principles regarding the need for practical action based on the best professional knowledge and experience have no alternatives. The above is presented in the paper with the details of Štampar's activities during the cholera epidemic in Egypt and associated with the experiences of the recent global crisis caused by the COVID pandemic.
本文分析了第二次世界大战后安德里亚·斯滕帕（Andrija Štampar）在建立有效的国际卫生组织方面的活动。分析档案材料证实，斯滕帕作为世界卫生组织（世卫组织）临时委员会主席，在世卫组织系统的思想起点和组织建立方面发挥了关键作用，这些作用至今仍然具有现实意义。除了战略基础之外，还表明他提出的基于最佳专业知识和经验采取实际行动的原则是无可替代的。本文通过斯滕帕在埃及霍乱疫情期间的活动细节以及与最近由 COVID 大流行引发的全球危机的经验进行了阐述。
