*30 years after Alma Ata: The Future of Community Health*

*MMS Bulletin 111/February 2009*

The Declaration of Alma Ata and the concept of primary health care that it
propagates are a key point of reference for most of organizations working in
healthcare provision. The just published Bulletin of Medicus Mundi
Switzerland collects contributions from a conference, which took place last
November in Basle. It is an important Reader, which discuses central issues
of international health policy and experiences of international health
cooperation. *
