Praise for Global Health Watch 6
“At a time when global health often takes little notice of history and resulting power relationships between and within countries, Global Health Watch reliably fills this gap. GHW6, as in previous editions, marshals data and scholarship to support the right to health for all people. It helps answer the call to decolonize global health scholarship and practice. In these times, when pandemics, climate crisis accelerate inequality, it should be required reading for all who work in the field.”— Mary T.
