Evaluating international public health issuescritical reflections on diseases and disasters, policies and practices /[electronic resource] :by Mbuso Precious Mabuza. - Singapore :Springer Singapore :2020. - xvi, 334 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Chapter 1 International Public Health and the Burden of Diseases -- Chapter 2 Inequity in Low- and Middle-Income Countries and the Colonial History of Public Health -- Chapter 3 Health Systems -- Chapter 4 The UN Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) -- Chapter 5 Diseases Control and the Promotion of Public Health Equity -- Chapter 6 Adolescents, Sexual Reproductive Health (SRH) and Equity -- Chapter 7 Globalisation, Climate Change, and Disasters -- Chapter 8 Conclusions and Notes to the Reader.

This book makes an original contribution in addressing contemporary critical discussions and reflections on international health policies, strategies, programmes, systems, diseases, disasters, and public health issues. It includes reflections on how levels of governance, development and technical assistance affect countries' disaster readiness and health systems. In addressing inequalities between the rich and the poor, and unpacking how this affects public health services, policies, strategies and their collective implementation, the book aspires to improve standards of public health and quality of life for sustainable development globally. It provides a comprehensive overview of international health policies and aid structures, and pays particularly close attention to policies on HIV/AIDS in the workplace, discussing how HIV/AIDS has overshadowed non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as hypertension and stroke, which are on the rise. This book will be of great benefit to students and researchers, as well as policymakers in governmental and non-governmental organisations, who have an interest in achieving greater sustainability and improved health for populations in low-, middle- and high-income countries. It will be an indispensable book for students in Public Health programmes, and related courses.
