Advancements in medical science and technology have the potential to transform global health, but they also bring ethical challenges related to fairness, accessibility, and equity. Intellectual property laws and governance structures, while encouraging innovation, can inadvertently limit access to essential treatments, particularly in underserved regions. Balancing the need for innovation with the imperative of equitable healthcare requires careful policy design and global cooperation. Addressing these issues is vital to ensuring that medical breakthroughs benefit all populations, not just those with economic or geographic advantages. Global Health Governance and Human Rights provides a comprehensive and interdisciplinary examination of the ethical dimensions of healthcare innovation and the mechanisms that either promote or restrict access to life-saving medical treatments. By engaging with diverse perspectives, including those from law, medicine, global health governance, and human rights advocacy, it offers practical insights into how to reconcile the competing demands for innovation and equity. Covering topics such as affordable pharmaceuticals, right to food, and transgender persons, this book is an excellent resource for academicians, legal professionals, policymakers, healthcare practitioners, and those working in global health governance.
