Overview

In the last decade, the landscape of global health policy has been transformed, with a marked expansion in the number and type of organizations operating in this sphere. This book examines this transformation. Moving beyond a focus on the larger organizations such as the World Health Organization, it argues that closer attention needs to be paid to the inner workings of individual organizations to understand the shaping of today's global health agenda. Drawing on interviews with staff and leaders in global health organizations, it provides a practical framework for understanding how and why organizations pursue certain goals, as well as offering a uniquely nuanced account of the contemporary global health architecture.
