Summary:
Global Health Watch (GHW), now in its sixth edition, provides the definitive voice for an alternative discourse on health. It integrates rigorous analysis, alternative proposals and stories of struggles and change to present a compelling case for the imperative to work for a radical transformation of the way we approach actions and policies on health. Global Health Watch 6 (GHW6) appears at a time of yet another critical global health juncture: the COVID-19 Pandemic, which has revealed the depth of global inequities in access to resources essential for health, and the risk this poses to our future survival. With contributions from across the globe, GHW6 addresses key issues related to health systems and the range of social, economic, political, and environmental determinants of health -- locating decisions and choices that impact on health in the structure of global power relations and economic governance--back cover.
