 Health for Some investigates the impact of globalization on human health.
Although increasing affluence improves health, globalization often fails to
deliver rapid economic growth and poverty reduction. Those who fall
behind in the winner take all markets of global competition not only
suffer from poverty and poor health, but also lose access to health care
 and other essential health-producing services.

Reversing these trends will require decisive and coordinated action
on the part of high-income countries in areas we often do not connect
  with: debt cancellation, increased development assistance, fair trade
policies and global tax reforms. Ultimately, everyone should have the
opportunity to lead a healthy life: it should be a basic human right.
