Improving health care in resource poor environments requires close
collaboration between international groups and local, on-the-ground
medical professionals and institutions. Insights in Global Health
is an invaluable resource for both parts of that equation and a
sure way to advance the cause of better health across the
planet.’
- Dr. Denis Mukwege, founder, Panzi Hospital and Nobel Peace Prize
laureate‘The global health landscape is complex. Thousands of
organizations – UN agencies, religious groups, and nonprofits -
support public health and provide health care in countries around
the world. This remarkable book provides the first-ever map of this
landscape. It is an essential guide.’
- Philip J. Landrigan, M.D., M.Sc., FAAP, Director, Program for
Global Public Health and the Common Good, Boston College;
Editor-in-Chief, Annals of Global Health‘Global development and
sustainable progress depend on populations that are healthy and
empowered. The data provided by Insights in Global Health can
ensure that emerging countries have access to the healthcare
required for long-term success.’
- Andrea Jung, CEO and President, Grameen America‘One of the
greatest promises of our technological age is the power of Big Data
to improve health outcomes. By extracting insights from disparate
data in innovative ways, Insights in Global Health is helping to
create an “efficient market” for the delivery of healthcare in
underserved regions at a time when the world needs it most.’
