Health Policy Analysis: An international workshop to extend the field

Event - Workshop - 21 - 22 May 2007



Health policy is embedded in a political process. Untangling the complex forces underpinning policy change is critical to making a difference. This is the field of health policy analysis.



There is a surprisingly small body of research on these issues, particularly in low and middle income countries. Twenty-five leading health policy analysts from continents around the world - Asia and the Pacific, Africa, Middle East, North and South America, Europe - met in London to take stock of the field and discuss how they could strengthen and take it forward.
