Evaluating the Healthy Cities initiative
Conceptually mapping how investing in essential public health functions (EPHFs) and common goods for health (CGH) can improve health system performance
Background: Calls for investing in essential public health functions (EPHFs) and common goods for health (CGH) are numerous, but it is often unclear to policymakers how such investments lead to health system improvements. Objectives: To showcase plausible pathways between actions taken to improve specific health system functions-in other words, investments in EPHFs and CGH-and their impact on health system performance, the health systems performa…
The quest for equity in global health is underpinned by neocolonial discourses
Global health, as noted in the emerging decolonizing global health literature, is built on power asymmetries and inequities, is centred on individuals and organizations in the global north, and involves a north to south diffusion of ideas and resources. Despite increasing attention paid to the decolonization of global health, there is no universal understanding of what this entails, or what associated agenda(s) may be. We argue that decolonizing …
How do high-level African directors of policy and planning operationalize health equity? Findings from a regional survey
This study investigates the operationalization of health equity and associated challenges faced by directors of policy and planning and those in related positions in the African Region. The results of this study demonstrate that health equity is generally a priority for policymakers in practice and is operationalized in four ways: (i) targeting priority groups, (ii) focusing on the entire population; (iii) through procedural justice; and (iv) ope…
The discriminatory politics of knowledge production
Academic publishing is one of several forces that shape what is recognized as global health knowledge. The peer review process is meant to ensure rigor and quality, yet it can reproduce political and structural inequalities, especially when research challenges dominant narratives. For researchers from marginalized and colonized communities, these dynamics determine whether their language, identity, and lived realities are permitted in scholarly s…
How do World Health Organization technical officers working on noncommunicable diseases approach health equity
The findings of this study demonstrate that WHO technical officers working on NCDs often possessed a limited understanding of health equity that resulted in little meaningful action to embed health equity considerations into programmatic and policy work. Evidently, WHO technical officers need to better navigate or contest industry interference and learn more about health equity as a concept and the links to NCDs
Assessing health equity inconsistencies in the World Health Organization’s Urban Heart initiative
This study presents disconnects between WHO's intentions and actions that followed from Urban HEART. Moving forward, it would be important to discuss goals or approaches sought, prior to any global health initiatives, whether explicitly focused on health equity or not
Colonisation and its aftermath
Coloniality in global health manifests as systemic inequalities, not based on merit, that benefit one group at the expense of another. Global surgery seeks to advance equity by inserting surgery into the global health agenda; however, it inherits the biases in global health. As a diverse group of global surgery practitioners, we aimed to examine inequities in global surgery. Using a structured, iterative, group Delphi consensus-building process d…
Strengthening regulation for medical products in Tanzania
Improving medicines regulation can lead to better population health, but how this process works in low- and middle-income countries remains underexplored. Tanzania’s pharmaceutical sector is often cited as a successful example of a well-functioning regulatory system in a developing country, attributed to the work of the Tanzania Food and Drugs Authority (TFDA), now the Tanzania Medicines and Medical Devices Authority (TMDA). This raises the quest…

Colonialism, malaria, and the decolonization of global health
This paper explores the decolonization of global health through a focus on malaria and European colonialism in Africa. We employ an historical perspective to better articulate what “colonial” means and to specify in greater detail how colonial ideas, patterns, and practices remain an obstacle to progress in global health now. This paper presents a history of malaria, a defining aspect of the colonial project. Through detailed analysis of the past…
Probing key informants’ views of health equity within the World Health Organization’s Urban Heart initiative
To date, no studies have assessed how those involved in the World Health Organization's (WHO) work understand the concept of health equity. To fill the gap, this research poses the question, "how do Urban Health Equity Assessment and Response Tool (Urban HEART) key informants understand the concept of health equity?", with Urban HEART being selected given the focus on health equity. To answer this question, this study undertakes synchronous elect…
Assessing the World Health Organization
The World Health Organization (WHO), the leading global authority in public health, routinely attracts loud calls for reform. Although Member States negotiate reform internally, academic debate is more public, and can generate ideas and provide independent accountability. We investigate why authors advocate for WHO reform so commonly. We wondered if this literature had potentially useful themes for WHO, what methods and evidence were used, and we…

Quantifying the Valuation of Animal Welfare Among Americans
The financing gaps framework
As growth in development assistance for health levels off, development assistance partners must make allocation decisions within tighter budget constraints. Furthermore, with the advent of comprehensive and comparable burden of disease and health financing estimates, empirical evidence can increasingly be used to direct funding to those most in need. In our 'financing gaps framework', we propose a new approach for harnessing information to make d…
Global health aid allocation in the 21st century
Resource allocation processes at multilateral organizations working in global health
International institutions provide well over US$10 billion in development assistance for health (DAH) annually and between 1990 and 2014, DAH disbursements totaled $458 billion but how do they decide who gets what, and for what purpose? In this article, we explore how allocation decisions were made by the nine convening agencies of the Equitable Access Initiative. We provide clear, plain language descriptions of the complete process from resource…
Political economy analysis for tobacco control in low- and middle-income countries
Tobacco is already the world's leading cause of preventable death, claiming over 5 million lives annually, and this toll is rising. Even though effective tobacco control policies are well researched and widely disseminated, they remain largely unimplemented in most low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). For the most part, control attempts by advocates and government regulators have been frustrated by transnational tobacco companies (TTCs) and …
Diarrhoeal diseases and the global health agenda
We investigate priority setting and the global health agenda by analysing the control of diarrhoeal diseases (CDD). CDD was one of the 'twin engines' of the 1980s' child survival movement, but now has a low priority on the global health agenda, even though diarrhoeal diseases still claim around 1.5 million children annually. In this article, we develop a framework and four indicators of priority to measure CDD's overall prominence on the global h…
