Advancements in health and medicine have lead human civilization to dramatically increased lifespans, improved quality-of-life, and cures to many diseases that once threatened entire populations. Unfortunately, despite these advances, we are facing an unprecedented health crisis due in part to skyrocketing healthcare costs, the spread of preventable illnesses, and a growing disconnect between science and the business of healthcare.
Lack of access to care and malnutrition in developing nations, epidemic obesity and antibiotic resistant bacteria are just a few of the many health challenges we face today. In order to overcome these challenges, new approaches for health are urgently needed.
In the emerging global economy, healthcare is a complex system that is intertwined with politics, science, economics, and education. How might we advance new ways of thinking and responding to health related issues to reduce suffering and create paths to a flourishing world?
Transforming a major sector of human society is a complex undertaking. These sectors, or spheres, are complex systems that involve nuanced relationships between many parts and also with the environment. These relationships give rise to collective outcomes and behaviors that are difficult to see as a whole. In addition, people who participate in and are affected by these systems come from different backgrounds with different belief systems, and therefore tend to draw different conclusions about the best way to solve them.
Within this dynamic, various strategies are put forth that address various aspects, and reflect different ideas and perspectives. Even strategies that have historically failed are often championed again because different people have different interpretations of history, and therefore draw different conclusions about what works and what doesn’t.
With this in mind, our goal on this site is simply to illuminate, in general terms, various strategies within the collective mind that aim to close the gap between today’s reality and the future potential of this sphere of human activity. The strategies are not meant to be comprehensive solutions, but general approaches or paths forward.
Members are then invited to rank the strategies by registering an up or down vote to indicate your view on the relative importance or priority of each strategy. Over time, this information will assist research teams in developing new reports for publication.
Expand worldwide research and treatment programs, and increase advocacy and education to eradicate HIV/AIDS.
Increase funding for cost-effective vaccine delivery programs to fight the spread of infectious diseases in developing countries.
Increase access to reproductive education and health services for women throughout the developing world.
