Health and Development by International Monetary Fund Pdf

The past century has been marked by rapid advances in human welfare. People in most parts of the world are healthier and are living longer. While this trend is likely to continue, hopes are fading in some regions where progress slowed or stopped in the1990s, primarily as a result of the AIDS epidemic. This compilation of articles published over the past five years in the pages of F&D looks at the important links between health and economic progress. Articles range over a variety of topics, from the Millennium Development Goals and their health-related targets for 2015 to the economics of tobacco control. Several articles examine the impact of AIDS and the global reaction, while others look at debt and the intellectual property aspects of health care.

AIDS, Poverty Reduction and Debt Relief by Olusoji Adeyi Pdf

As HIV/AIDS has become recognized as a threat to development in many developing countries, so have these countries attempted to "mainstream" HIV/AIDS into instruments of development. For poor countries, where PRSPs serve as the country's agenda for poverty reduction, it has become crucial for country-level managers and analysts to make credible proposals for the inclusion of HIV/AIDS in the poverty reduction effort. This Toolkit will enable country officials and their partners to prepare and negotiate effectively the inclusion of scaled-up HIV/AIDS programmes in their PRSPs and instruments of debt relief under the enhanced HIPC initiative.
