The World Health Organization (WHO) is undergoing a crisis of
credibility and challenge. Having been subjected to a severe
financial crisis and criticisms of its management of pandemics such
as the H1N1 flu case and the outbreak of Ebola, with a new
Director-General at its helm, it is an ideal time to review the
WHO's past and current achievements including on-going operations
and reported failures. Whilst time is given to recurrent attacks on
WHO performance, it is balanced by also highlighting the WHO's
leadership, its member states, and its influence on other actors,
NGOs and business. As such, this study reviews the WHO's actions in
the most visible programmes such as SARS, H1N1, Ebola and also
smallpox, malaria, onchocerciasis, polio and AIDS. The author also
discusses the desirable balance between operational and normative
functions and proposals for reform of the Organization.
