Blog highlights global health challenges, opportunities in 2013

Chatham House's "Expert Comment" blog features commentary on four global health issues the organization's experts view as important in the year ahead. David Heymann, head and senior fellow of the Chatham House Centre on Global Health Security, introduces the post by summarizing "[i]mportant developments in global health last year" and writes, "2013 is also likely to provide several global health events to reflect on, so we asked four of our experts to comment on what they consider to be the challenges and opportunities for global health over the next 12 months." The post discusses the role of emerging economies in global health; the Sustainable Development Goals; the relationship between social media and global health; and the response to non-communicable diseases (1/10).
