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.Medical policyHealth promotionEconomic developmentInfectious diseasesEpidemiologyHealth Policyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H27040Health Promotion and Disease Preventionhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H27010Development and Healthhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/913060Infectious Diseaseshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33096Epidemiologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H63000Medical policy.Health promotion.Economic development.Infectious diseases.Epidemiology.Health Policy.Health Promotion and Disease Prevention.Development and Health.Infectious Diseases.Epidemiology.362.1Mabuza Mbuso Preciousauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut927186BOOK9910369931803321Evaluating International Public Health Issues2083252UNINA
