Beyond Politics: A New Era in Global Health Strategy
-

Written by:
Dr. Alma Golden, pediatrician and former Assistant Administrator for Global Health at USAID, discusses the evolution of global health strategy on the Health Policy Podcast. She highlights a shift from previous approaches—often characterized by funding tied to specific mandates through NGOs—to the "America First" strategy's emphasis on bilateral agreements, country-led priorities, and whole-person care.
Dr. Golden explains the origins and impact of the Geneva Consensus Declaration, an agreement among now 41 nations promoting national sovereignty in healthcare decisions and rejecting the idea of abortion as an international right. She elaborates on how this new approach fosters trust, supports faith-based organizations, and recognizes the pivotal role of family in health outcomes, advocating for treating nations as partners rather than projects.
