Global health addresses health challenges that affect populations across the world, including infectious diseases, maternal mortality, malnutrition, and health system strengthening. It emphasizes equity and access, particularly for underserved populations in low-income and conflict-affected regions.
Key actors include the WHO, UNICEF, and international NGOs. Global health intersects with humanitarian aid when health crises occur in conflict zones or following natural disasters.
