Following the publication of Negotiating and Navigating Global
Health: Case Studies in Global Health Diplomacy edited by Ellen
Rosskam and Ilona Kickbusch, this second volume of case studies
will complement the first volume and extends its scope. The new
book focuses on health diplomacy negotiations, in Geneva and
elsewhere, that have involved WHO or that have substantial
implications for the work of WHO. Each of the chapters provides a
detailed account of a particular example of global health
negotiation, concerning hard and soft law instruments but also
addressing the full range of health issues - reaching from issues
of research and development, polio eradication, NCDs and plain
packaging, to the post-2015 process, the WHO reform and non-state
involvement. The book therefore captures a wide-range of
experiences of distinguished diplomats, academics and senior
practitioners.The contributions to the book are written by
negotiators and academics and thus, will provide a unique angle and
a tool of reflection for a broad audience. In particular, it will
be of interest not only to the academic community and students, but
also to policy-makers and diplomats. The case studies will allow
for learning on how negotiations work in a complex policy
environment. The focus on WHO will explore how a major
international organization engages in global health diplomacy and
on the implications that health-related diplomacy taking place in a
variety of settings has for its work. As such, the book is an
important contribution to the growing field of global health
diplomacy and to the debate about the role of WHO in the 21str
century.
