Advancing a Global Vision

Since the journal's inception, Global Advances in Health and Medicine has sought to highlight global health issues and perspectives through a lens that includes a focus on integrative health and medicine. In an article published in Lancet, Koplan et al call for a common definition of global health.1 Distinguishing the differences between international health (focuses on health issues of countries other than one's own) and public health (focuses on issues that affect the health of the population of a particular country), they define global health as follows: Global health is an area for study, research and practice that places priority on improving health and achieving equity in health for all people worldwide. Global health emphasizes transnational health issues, determinants, and solutions; involves many disciplines within and beyond the health sciences and promotes interdisciplinary collaboration; and is a synthesis of population-based prevention with individual-level clinical care.1
