LAW 736B - Global Public Health Law (Prof. Brady - Fall 2023)

Introduction to Global Health

"How should global health be understood in an era marked by the rising burden of non-communicable diseases (NCDs), climate change and other environmental crises, integrated chains of production and consumption, a power shift towards emerging economies, intensified migration, and instant information transmission? . . . [G]lobal health should be reconceptualised as the health of the global population, with a focus on the dense relationships of interdependence across nations and sectors that have arisen with globalisation."

Julio Frenk et al., From Sovereignty to Solidarity: A Renewed Concept of Global Health for an Era of Complex Interdependence, 383 Lancet 94, 94 (2014).
