Description
This report builds on the Nuffield Trust's interest in the implications of globalisation for health in the UK and partnership with the Centre of Global Change and Health at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. We need to think increasingly about public health policy and practice beyond the border, closer cross-sectoral and interagency colloboration, and enhanced global governance for public health.
