PHM-Exch> ANNOUNCEMENT: GLOBAL HEALTH WATCH III IS COMING

[Claudio Schuftan]

>From the PHM secretariat:



 The Global Health Watch III is the  Alternative World Health Report



In an increasingly globalised world with new cross-border threats to health,
widening disparities in health and access to health care, and an
unacceptable level of human suffering and premature mortality in many
countries, people across the globe are asking, why is so little progress
being made by in promoting health in the world?

The Global Health Watch is designed to seek answers to such questions and
also to

articulate solutions. It proposes an alternate vision of health located in a
vision of equity,

rights and empowerment. It is a collaborative civil society initiative,
presently co-ordinated by the Peoples Health Movement, Medact and other
partners.
