Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic is an opportune moment to revisit the mutual relationship between health and development. The Development Financing Institutes (DFI) at the behest of Multilateral and Bilateral actors have been investing in health systems to organize health care services and contribute to the goals of economic development. The article theoretically defines this model of development financing in health, and questions the utility of health systems which is indifferent to the wider determinants of health active in the spheres of ecology, environment and society. The pandemic prevention, preparedness and response will require both reassessment of development finance and restructuring of health systems to address the wider determinants of health. The article argues that health systems resilience needs to take one health approach in account in order to redesign health systems in the post-pandemic world. The development finance must rally support behind the one health approach to promote sustainable development, environmental protection, and ensure public health safety and security.
