Transforming Global Health Partnerships, Gebunden

Klappentext

This is a book about the human experience of doing infectious disease research, linked to operational responses to disease outbreaks around the world. Rather than a manual or how-to guide, this book presents a roadmap and vision for equitable, sustainable, and impactful partnerships shared through a rich interweaving of voices -- north and south, academics and community practitioners, senior mentors and trainees, multiple generations, multiple disciplines. It focuses on the stories that need to be told, the successes and the failures, and visions for a healthier and more compassionate future for humanity.

Each of the book's three sections address a key dimension of infectious disease work now and in the future. Section I provides background on the foundational principles of the field, and critically examines the successes and shortcomings of current structures. Section II presents case studies from a diverse collection of authors acrossresearch, academia, policy, and practice, highlighting both unique and shared experiences. The final section proposes sustainable, equitable improvements, within the context of a changing global landscape and the future of pandemics and infectious disease research. 

This is an open access book.
