Database of publications / Global health watch 2005/06: an alternative world health report

Published by the Global Health Watch Secretariat, the Global Health Watch 2005/06 is the first “alternative world health report”, written from the perspective of civil society. It challenges the world’s major institutions, addresses the causes of global inequality, and sets out measures for achieving adequate and equitable health for all. In particular, it argues that the WHO is insufficiently resourced, and distracted from its core aims by internal management problems, the power games of rich nations, and too many uncoordinated initiatives. It calls on the world community to go further than the G8 summit in addressing debt, aid and trade.
