The Elgar Companion to Health and the Sustainable Development Goals
ISBN-13: 9781803927237 / Angielski / Twarda / 2025 / 420 str.
This Companion explores the tension between the promises of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the realities of healthcare in a volatile and uncertain world wracked by climate change and conflict. Championing health as a pivotal public good, it presents solutions for improved access to health rooted in community empowerment and accountability of governance. Highlighting innovative research and practice, academics and practitioners from the Global South and North examine key strategies for success in the future of health and the SDGs, focusing on holistic structural approaches. Bringing different voices and perspectives to the fore, they cover a wide range of dimensions to the challenge, including: inequality, power and participation; health systems; gender-based discrimination and violence; sexual and reproductive health and rights; food and the environment; urbanisation; and governance and accountability. Ultimately, the Companion embodies a vision for change, offering practical insights from the inclusive work of social enterprises, NGOs, cross-sector integrated approaches to health, and reform dynamics in global and national-level institutions and governance systems. The Elgar Companion to Health and the Sustainable Development Goals is a crucial resource for students and academics in development studies, health policy and economics, social policy, sociology of development and sustainable development. It is also invaluable to practitioners and policymakers in NGOs, governments, private philanthropy and consultancy.
