Continue reading -> How The Global Fund Plans To Raise US$ 14 Billion To Meet Its Goals 11/02/2019 Patralekha Chatterjee NEW DELHI, India -- Since its creation in 2002, the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria has been an extraordinarily successful financing instrument in global health. It says it has saved 27 million lives as of the end of 2017 and reduced the number of deaths caused by AIDS, TB and malaria each year by one-third since 2002 in the countries where it invests. Now the Global Fund director has some ideas to increase funding to carry on the fight. Continue reading -> WHO Board Hears Need For Palliative Care, Children Neglected By Medical Research 06/02/2019 Catherine Saez The World Health Organization Executive Board last week heard about what the lack of access to medicines and other health services has meant in real life. These ranged from the heart-wrenching story of a baby girl needing and getting pain-killing medication to ease her life and passing to bring attention to the need for palliative care, to millions of children not getting the treatment they need to treat tuberculosis or heart diseases. Continue reading -> Ending TB: Multi-Sectoral Collaboration Needed To Tackle Disease Of Poverty, Board Says 01/02/2019 Editorial team There is a need to strengthen multisectoral collaboration to halt the global tuberculosis epidemic, WHO Executive Board (EB) members said in a review of the WHO End TB Strategy, which aims to reduce TB deaths by 90 percent by 2030. Continue reading -> WHO Aims To Broaden Dialogue With Civil Society 31/01/2019 Elaine Ruth Fletcher The World Health Organization is exploring ways to expand relationships with non-governmental organizations, including broader collaborations on key global health priorities and a possible informal consultation with civil society every year, Director General Dr Tedros Adhanom Gheyebresus told WHO’s Executive Board today. Continue reading -> WHO Director Tedros: World Must Redouble Efforts On Health-Related SDGs 27/01/2019 Elaine Ruth Fletcher Health-related Sustainable Development Goals won’t be met unless global, regional and country efforts are intensified, declared WHO Director General Dr Tedros Adhanom Gheyebresus, yesterday.

In fact, the very existence of the European Union as we have known it so far is at stake, on this political issue. A certain degree of prudence would seem understandable, then, a few months ahead of the May EU elections. Surely, the intergovernmental nature of the UN agencies force them to interact with Member States, that is why exacerbating the political arena is a risky operation that may not pay off at all, in the long run. Moreover, for WHO Europe, the report on the health of refugees and migrant people in the 53 countries of the region is the first one of its kind, which may explain the hesitance of the beginner. But it is difficult to deny a bitter aftertaste, especially after the press conference.

Certainly some of the big issues on the agenda in 2019 might suggest that we are at a crossroads. We can expect to see an intensification of the push for universal health coverage (UHC), culminating with a first-ever high-level United Nations meeting, and a shift away from disease-specific interventions towards more integrated approaches. Health Policy Watch spoke with a range of leading global health policy experts from the World Health Organization (WHO), NGOs, industry and foundations to get their take on the top issues, and here is what they said to watch for in 2019 in five priority areas.
