| Summary: | This study summarizes the existing
knowledge and relevant abstracts and case-studies on the
design of health and/or trade reforms and policies. The
study aims to contribute to the understanding of the
potential benefits and risks - and ways to maximize the
former and minimize the latter - of trade in the health
sector. It is designed for non-trade (health) experts to
understand how trade can help to improve health systems and
access to health services, and for trade specialists to
understand the specific characteristics of the health sector. |
