Abstract

This concluding chapter is a synopsis of key messages for investors who seek to maximize returns in terms of health and institutional impacts. The preceding chapters explored the conceptual and operational premise of global health, real-world examples of global health in practice, and multiple dimensions of its interface with DAH. While readers will have different perspectives on any single aspect of the book, I hope that all will agree on one thing: global health is very complex in real life.But complexity is not an excuse for paralysis amidst vast unmet needs for health services, inequities in the capacities and capabilities of health systems, and dysfunctional approaches to DAH. In the quest for better performance, investors optimizing for enduring health and institutional impacts, equity, solidarity between the Global North and the Global South, and self-reliance by the Global South have multiple levers that are mutually reinforcing.
