collaboration of leading popular movements and nongovernmental organizations
comprising civil society activists, community groups, health workers and

report – a hard-hitting, evidence-based analysis of the political economy of
health and health care – as a challenge to major global bodies that influence
health. Its monitoring of institutions including the World Bank, the World
Health Organization and UNICEF reveals that while some important initiatives are
being taken, much more needs to be done to have any hope of meeting the UN’s
health related Millennium Development Goals.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
