Abstract

The last two decades have seen a profound change in our understanding of the relationship between health and development. This has involved a shift from the view that good health will be achieved as an outcome of development to a perspective that regards improving health as an indispensable contributor to development. The change in viewpoint was punctuated by series of international conferences (including the UN International Conference on Population and Development held in Cairo in 1994 and the Fourth World Conference on Women held Beijing in 1995) that culminated in the MDGs in 2000 and the case was cogently presented in the report of the Commission on Macroeconomics and Health in 2001 (World Health Organization 2001).
