Overview

Global health management is the multidisciplinary practice of planning, organising, and coordinating health programmes, systems, and resources to improve health and reduce health inequities across populations worldwide. It combines knowledge from public health, medicine, epidemiology, health economics, and management to address health challenges that transcend national boundaries and to strengthen the systems through which care is delivered. The field is concerned with the organisation and financing of health services, the allocation of scarce resources, the management of the health workforce, and the design of policies that respond to differing levels of development and need, as reflected in analyses of health systems in developing countries. A central focus is the delivery of accessible, equitable, quality care, including primary healthcare and the management of non-communicable diseases in ageing populations, alongside the control of communicable threats such as malaria and antimicrobial resistance. Global health management also attends to the determinants of health and to comparative approaches, including cross-national study of nutrition and dietary education, that inform policy and practice. The well-being of the health workforce, including the burden of burnout among healthcare staff, is recognised as integral to system performance. By integrating evidence, policy, economics, and operational management, global health management seeks to make health systems more effective, resilient, and equitable, and to advance population health on a global scale.
