One year overview
The WHO Council on the Economics of Health for All
Overview
The WHO Council on the Economics of Health for All has issued a report on its activities at the one-year mark, half-way through its mandate.
The Council set out to rethink economic systems in a way that would move the world towards Health for All and the Report highlights how, with this in mind, through the first year, the main activity has been to issue four foundational briefs that assess the ability of the current global and national health architecture to deliver health for all across four key pillars -- what we value and measure, how we finance (or not) what we value, the approach to catalyze innovation and who reaps (or not) its benefits, and the importance of in-house state capacity in delivering common goods.
