This book provides a systematic collection of EU actors, EU policy
and EU actions in global health. It answers key questions on
governance of the EU and its policy processes. The book starts with
an introduction to the EU as a global actor and continues to
outline the historical development and the Treaty basis for health,
including the Maastricht and Lisbon Treaties. It also discusses the
Commission's global health communication and the subsequent Council
Conclusions on global health. Both documents define EU values in
global health and identify the future priorities for global health
action in the EU. Four of the five priorities are then described
from the perspective of a different country experience. The book
also considers the opportunities for research and provides an
overview of the political, legal and financial instruments
available to the EU. It also explores the global health
architecture and processes within which the EU is acting, namely at
the WHO, in the different multilateral organizations, and in global
public health international treaties and regulations. Finally, the
book addresses the importance of policy coherence at a national
level and provides critical viewpoint on the EU as a global health
actor.The book will assist practitioners working in policy making
and international negotiations affecting health, as well as
students and researchers, to create a better understanding of the
European Union, its role in global health, and the uniqueness and
specificity of the EU as a global health actor. It provides an
overview of how the EU can act in global health and outlines the
intersections of health and other sectors, as well as the
instruments available to the EU to act effectively at a global
level. The collection of contributions in this form and from this
health policy perspective are not yet found elsewhere on the
market.
