What is global health?
• How is it different from “international health”?• Houpt, et al. Acad Med 2007; 82(3): 222-5• “Global health” stresses “the global
commonality of health issues that transcend national borders, class, race, ethnicity, income, or culture.”
• Disease patterns vary geographically but the factors that foster disease onset are often the same.
• Rise of NCDs highlights our “sameness”
![Page 4: Global Health in US Medical Education: A Focus on Israel and Palestine](https://reader037.fdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022103007/56814359550346895dafd63b/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
What is global health?
• How is it different from “international health”?• Director General of the World Health
Organization:• “In the past, desperate conditions on another
continent might cynically be written out of one’s memory. The process of globalization has made such an option impossible. The separation between domestic and international health problems is no longer useful.”
• Speech in New York, NY – April 19, 2001
• “Global” emphasizes “sameness”• “International” emphasizes “differences”
