U.S. leadership in global health advances core U.S. interests. It
fulfills shared humanitarian values by saving and enhancing lives.
It strengthens health security against common and emerging threats.
And it promotes stability and prosperity in far-flung communities
in the developing world who strive for better health and better
lives for their families. For all these reasons, supporting global
health should remain a U.S. government and budget priority-and as
the second Obama administration and incoming Congress commence
their work, this collection of essays offers pragmatic, informed
guidelines for seizing the opportunities ahead. The volume analyzes
seven important dimensions of a complex, widening U.S. global
health agenda: HIV/AIDS; malaria; polio eradication; women's
health; health security; health diplomacy; and multilateral
partners. Each essay catalogs and interprets the past four years'
developments in its respective focal area, charting the measurable
health impacts for which the United States can claim at least
partial credit, and highlighting persistent problems and
challenges. The essays conclude with concrete recommendations on
how the United States can achieve the best results in the next four
years in promoting the improvement of health, especially among the
world's most vulnerable citizens.
