Abstract

The struggle for accessible and inclusive health care systems and policy is a major battleground across the world. Global health issues include infectious diseases; mortality from reproductive, maternal and child health; the shift in the global disease burden toward noncommunicable diseases; weak institutional arrangements to tackle these challenges; and reduced medical expenditures together with increase in health care costs. Meeting these challenges requires new and innovative approaches and initiatives. Public–private partnerships (PPPs) have increasingly been utilized as a mechanism to address global health issues, although there is no agreed unifying definition of PPP in the context of global health. The emergence of PPPs in global health is situated in the complex analysis that accompanies global health markets. PPPs have been initially adopted as mechanisms to address the financial gap in health care delivery; however, they have increasingly become vehicles to open up health markets to private sector. PPPs have transformed the architecture of global health with increasing range of private, civil society, and other actors engaging in global health issues. This chapter provides an overview of the key issues in PPPs and provides an analysis of benefits and challenges in addressing global health issues. The chapter concludes with priority focus areas in the future.
