A call for greater Swiss Investment in Global Health!
Health system strengthening requires greater investment

Development Co-operation Directorate (DAC))
Jacques Martin
| The new health initiatives have a tendency towards verticality; yet to succeed in their endeavour they depend upon the system as a whole. Therefore they also depend upon invest¬ment in health system strengthening made by others. The international health challenges which the Millennium Development Goals address cannot be tackled through the direct health sector con¬tributions of single development partners. Switzerland lags behind as far as its direct and indirect supportive measures to address global health challenges. Parliamentary efforts to change the course towards an appropriate (i.e. much greater) “Swiss investment” in international health seem not to be producing the hoped for results.
