The World Health Organization has announced a new Council, Economics of Health for All, staffed by leading economists and health experts, to put “Health for All” at the center of how we think about value creation and economic growth.
The council is Chaired by noted economist Professor Mazzucato of University College London. Its aim is to create a body of work that sees investment in local and global health systems as an investment in the future, not as a short-term cost.
The first virtual session is expected in the coming weeks, to discuss its work plan and mode of operation. The Council will produce thought leadership for implementing change and help to inform the piloting of initiatives at the country level.
