Global Health Technology Coalition unveils fact sheets

November / December 2017 | Volume 16, Issue 6

Stack of global health R and D fact sheets from GHTC

A new electronic fact sheet kit detailing the importance of global health research and development has been produced by the Global Health Technology Coalition (GHTC), a group of more than 25 nonprofit organizations that advances policies to accelerate the creation of new health tools.

One set of downloadable fact sheets includes data and information about the importance of global health R&D, what it has achieved historically, and how it benefits health, security and the economy. Another series examines how different U.S. government agencies - including the NIH - contribute to global health R&D and provides examples of their successes.
