This eye-opening program provides a global perspective on health and human development. We speak to experts from The Nossal Institute for Global Health, ActionAid, and Oxfam, and examine the important work they are doing around the world. We define human development and the difference between developed and developing countries. The correlation between mortality rates and the health status of different nations is discussed. We also describe the relationship between health, human development and sustainability; evaluating WHO and UN strategies. We conclude by explaining the impact of health determinants on a nation's health, and analyzing equity and social justice.
