The new path for economic development that India must create The whole world has a stake in India’s future, and that future hinges on whether India can develop its economy and deliver for its population—now the world’s largest—while staying democratic. India’s economy has overtaken the United Kingdom’s to become the fifth-largest in the world, but it is still only one-fifth the size of China’s, and India’s economic growth is too slow to provide jobs for millions of its ambitious youth. Blocking India’s current path are intense global competition in low-skilled manufacturing, increasing protectionism and automation, and the country’s majoritarian streak in politics. In Bre...

This study set out to identify the political economy factors that shaped Kenya’s primary health care (PHC) reform process to adopt a primary care network model. The case study captures the trajectory of the reform during the initial years of implementation from 2020 to 2023. It describes Kenya’s model of primary care networks and the various types of politics influencing the reform. The case study is part of the Political Economy Analysis of Primary Health Care–oriented Reforms Country Case Study Series of WHO’s PHC Implementation Solutions Initiative. The initiative aims to explore how countries have achieved success in scaling up PHC-oriented health systems by documenting and sharing lessons from the vantage point of policy-makers and practitioners across contexts.
This book presents a multidimensional approach to understanding the effects of COVID-19 on the lifeworld of the marginalized communities in India. The essays in the volume pursue two interrelated concerns: first, they examine the governance aspect, highlighting institutional failures, a lack of political will, and ideological warfare. Second, they firmly position the crisis – as a narrative tool – at the heart of marginality, thereby explaining the effects of COVID-19 on communities that continue to remain at the nation's margins. The volume presents varied voices and granular narratives of sufferings that structured the lives of the poorest and dispossessed in the country during a crisis. It dovetails the reshaping of material forces that were crucially impacted by the failure of governance with the social lifeworld of those containing what can be referred to as intergenerational trauma. This volume offers a robust account of the crisis by combining these two distinct but complementary dimensions of COVID-19 in India. The volume will greatly interest scholars and researchers in governance, medical anthropology, public policy, politics, sociology, and South Asian studies.

Obesity in all age groups, including children and adolescents, is a public health challenge across all settings. Obesity is now classified as a complex multifactorial chronic disease and not just a risk factor for other noncommunicable diseases and comorbidities. Recognizing the significance of primary health care for an effective and efficient response to the obesity epidemic, the World Health Organization (WHO) has developed guidance on how to build capacity in the health system to deliver health services for prevention and management of obesity across the life course. This policy brief discusses the challenges and opportunities for preventing obesity in children and adolescents, and providing health services to treat and manage those already living with obesity. It outlines possible interventions through the primary health care approach.
