ISBN: 951-724-464-9

This publication summarises the findings of a review of the development of public interest safeguards in the health arena with a focus on the World Health Organization. It explores challenges to the establishment of an effective system to enable WHO to deal with conflicts of interest and other risks linked to the relationships between public and business-interest actors. A lack of space for open discussion about the new policy paradigm is identified as a key obstacle.
