This paper poses the question: how \u201cglobal\u201d is \u201dglobal \u00a0health\u201d? Through an analysis of four different contributors shaping global health, including academics, journals, health institutions and presenters at \u00a0global health conferences, this paper aims to determine if the development of global health is truly global. The paper concludes that global health is not \u00a0being shaped by those who are most affected by it; the majority of people influencing and defining global health priorities represent institutions based in the developed world. A number of trends and opportunities are identified and recommendations are made to ameliorate the observed imbalance.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.shu.edu\/ghg\/files\/2014\/06\/Fall-2013-Issue.pdf#page=22\"><button>Full Text<\/button><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0Tess van der Rijt and Tikki Pang Many health issues are transnational in nature and cannot be contained within national borders.
