Global Health Diplomacy (GHD) focuses on negotiations that shape and manage the global policy environment for health in health and non-health fora. It brings together the disciplines of public health, international affairs, management, law, history and economics. It relates in particular to health issues that cross national boundaries, are global in nature and require global agreements to address them. It aims for greater policy coherence between national health policies, the commitment to development and the need to define collective action in an interdependent world. GHD seeks to increase the understanding of the dynamics of global health governance by providing insights on institutions and instruments, mechanisms of shaping global policies and frameworks for negotiation. It further explores the conceptual approaches to global health as well as its value base.

This book series will present a series of scholarly writings to provide a possible focus for future education, training, research, and service in global health diplomacy for the 21st Century.
