PHM follows closely the work of WHO, both through the World Health Assembly amd the Executive Board. A team of PHM volunteers attends WHO bodies’ meetings – following the debate, talking with delegates and making statements to the EB. PHM’s commentaries cover most of the agenda items of the WHO bodies’ meetings and includes a note on the key issues in focus at them, a brief background and critical commentary. Reports on key issues are also prepared. PHM is part of a wider network of organizations committed to democratizing global health governance and working through the WHO-Watch project.
See the video from Geneva with Alice Fabbri (PHM’s watcher) who explains why PHM watches the WHO. The film maker is Sebastien Sauges.
