*Distinguished delegate to the 64th World Health Assembly,*
[...]

PHM is committed to a stronger WHO, adequately funded, with appropriate
powers and owning the leading role in global health governance. PHM follows
closely the work of WHO, through the initiative ‘Democratizing Global Health
Governance’ <http://www.ghwatch.org/who-watch/ghg> which was launched by the
PHM and several international civil society networks in May 2010.

Within the framework of this initiative, the PHM has established a ‘WHO
Watch <http://www.ghwatch.org/who-watch>’. The watch aims primarily at
building capacity in supporting the WHO to regain its leadership role in
global health governance according to its Constitution. WHO Watch mobilises
a large number of health activists, civil society networks and academics to
provide resources and evidence-based critiques related to the secretariat
reports, draft resolutions, and other materials during the preparations to
the WHO governance meetings especially the Executive Board (EB) meetings and
the Assemblies. Kindly refer to the section ‘WHO
Watch<http://www.ghwatch.org/who-watch>’
on the PHM’s ‘Global Health Watch’ <http://www.ghwatch.org/> (GHW) website.

Over the last week, 30 members of the ‘WHO Watch’ group from over 20
countries have been working through the 64th WHA Agenda with the assistance
of high level experts from a number of collaborating networks and NGOs.
During the workshop, the following comments on some of the agenda items of
the 64th WHA were drafted for your kind consideration.
