Produktbeschreibung
One hundred countriesmore than half of the worlds populationhave made significant strides in the last 30 years, improving life expectancy and the health of their populations. Despite socioeconomic limitations including extended wars and economic embargos as well as geographic limitations, these countries managed to provide basic health care, primary education, and clean water for their populations. In this unique book, with a foreword by the former Deputy Director-General of WHO, the author puts these, and many other countries, under the microscope through a detailed examination of best practices and best outcomes. How did they reach their present high level of life expectancy? How might future development programs be enhanced and what can other, still-developing countries learn from these examples? Should development assistance programs in the 21st century be based on teaching rather than giving unconditionally? Anchored on landmark UN declarations, and based on numerous indices including the World Development Index, all these questions are addressed.

She worked for the United Nations, was a Visiting Fellow at the Australian National University Medical School, and a health policy adviser for President Obama's campaign.The book is a reflection of her observations and experiences and her strong belief in human rights and universal access to primary healthcare, primary education, clean water, and sanitation. She is unapologetic when promoting good governance because she believes that all governments must consider individual human rights and provide basic services for all in their respective countries because these services are rights not privileges. Currently she is Assistant Professor at Tufts University Medical School/Department of Public Health and Community Medicine, where she teaches a comparative global health seminar.
