Description & Coverage
Description:

Global health is a complex and interconnected field encompassing a wide range of policies, initiatives, and innovations aimed at improving health outcomes worldwide. As the healthcare of populations becomes a global issue, worldwide efforts have emerged aimed at addressing the health challenges that transcend national boundaries. Research in global health initiatives hopes to improve healthcare outcomes and disparities while promoting equity, collaboration, and sustainability in medical practices.

Policies, Initiatives, and Innovations for Global Health provides insights into effective global healthcare initiatives, including practices in governance, equity, accessibility, and service. It explores the positive impacts of technology on world populations, with discussion on global health threats and health determinants. Covering topics such as precision health and AI, healthcare technology, and policy response and learning, this book is a useful resource for policymakers, public health professionals, researchers, academicians, students, healthcare practitioners, and government officials.
