The ‘medical brain drain’ phenomenon demonstrates a tension point between the rights of health care workers to move freely, and seek to live and work where they choose, and the needs of the countries which trained them. Often, this extensive, heated, and long running debate focuses on the impacts that medical brain drain has on exit countries, which are often left with inadequate healthcare staffing levels due to the active recruitment of health …
Years Later
The health impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic disproportionately impacted minorities and other minoritised groups in the UK, underscoring historical trends of social injustices. These health effects were felt by members of minoritised ethnic groups regardless of social or economic status. In this context, the combined impacts of disenfranchisement and discrimination accentuate health risks for members of these groups. These risks are worsened by st…
Solidarity is for other people
The role and importance of solidarity for effective health provision is the subject of lengthy and heated debate which has been thrown into even sharper relief by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Under normal circumstances, individuals can engage in solidarity with their compat…
Rationale, experience and ethical considerations underpinning integrated actions to further global goals for health and land biodiversity in Papua New Guinea
The SURFACES project is integrating action on good health and wellbeing [Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 3] and conservation of life on land (SDG 15) in the threatened rainforests of Papua New Guinea (PNG), and mapping evidence of similar projects worldwide. Our approach is framed by Planetary Health, aiming to safeguard both human health and the natural systems that underpin it. Our rationale is demonstrated through a summary of health needs …
Revising global theories of justice to include public goods
Our aim in this paper is to suggest that most current theories of global justice fail to adequately recognise the importance of global public goods. Broadly speaking, this failing can be attributed at least in part to the complexity of the global context, the individualistic focus of most theories of justice, and the localised nature of the theoretical foundations of most theories of global justice. We argue – using examples (particularly that of…
