Financing Global Health 2009
Financing Global Health 2009 provides a comprehensive picture of the total amount of funding for global health projects spanning two decades. It takes into account funding from aid agencies in 22 developed countries, multilateral institutions, and hundreds of nonprofit groups and charities. Prior to this report, nearly all private philanthropic giving for health was unaccounted for, meaning that nearly a third of all health aid was not tracked. This is the first in what will become an annual publication providing valid and consistent time-series data for tracking global health resources and offering in-depth analyses in the following three areas: development assistance for health, government health expenditure and private health expenditure.
The report was produced by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) at the University of Washington. Download it from: http://www.healthmetricsandevaluation.org/resources/policyreports/2009/financing_global_health_0709.html.
