  • Health Policy and Systems Research Publications in Latin America Warrant the Launching of a New Specialised Regional Journal
    González Block et al. Health Research Policy and Systems (2020) 18:59 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12961-020-00565-1 RESEARCH Open Access Health policy and systems research publications in Latin America warrant the launching of a new specialised regional journal Miguel Angel González Block1*, Juan Arroyo Laguna2, Oscar Cetrángolo3, Pedro Crocco Ábalos4, Ramiro Guerrero5, Daniela Riva Knauth6, Abdul Ghaffar7, Patricia Pavón León8, María del Rocío Saénz9, Rosanna González McQuire10, Beatriz Martínez Zavala10 and Emilio Gutiérrez Calderón11 Abstract Background: Scientific journals play a critical role in research validation and dissemination and are increasingly vocal about the identification of research priorities and the targeting of research results to key audiences. No new journals specialising in health policy and systems research (HPSR) and focusing in the developing world or in a specific developing world region have been established since the early 1980s. This paper compares the growth of publications on HPSR across Latin America and the world and explores the potential, feasibility and challenges of innovative publication strategies. Methods: A bibliometric analysis was undertaken using HPSR MeSH terms with journals indexed in Medline. A survey was undertaken among 2500 authors publishing on HPSR in Latin America (LA) through an online survey, with a 13.1% response rate. Aggregate indicators were constructed and validated, and two-way ANOVA tests were performed on key variables. Results: HPSR publications on LA observed an average annual growth of 27.5% from the years 2000 to 2018, as against 11.4% worldwide and yet a lag on papers published per capita. A total of 48 journals with an Impact Factor publish HPSR on LA, of which 5 non-specialised journals are published in the region and are ranked in the bottom quintile of Impact Factor.

  • Beginnings1 the Late Dr. Jonathan Mann First Launched Health And
    HHR Journal: A Brief History (2006-2010) Beginnings1 The late Dr. Jonathan Mann first launched Health and Human Rights: An International Journal, in 1994. In his essay introducing the first issue, Mann wrote, We have created this new journal, Health and Human Rights, to inform and expand the space within which ideas about the intersection between health and human rights can venture forth into the world, to be cited and criticized, debated and discussed, torn down and built up. For it is in the nature of pioneering work—in this case, exploring the frontiers of health and human rights—that some new paths will lead forward, and others will be found, later and from afar, to have been only byways and meandering trails.2 The new journal was to be a rigorous peer-review academic research publication, a flagship journal of the (then also) newly founded François-Xavier Bagnoud Center for Health and Human Rights, a Harvard University center founded by the Countess Albina du Boisrouvray and located at Harvard School of Public Health in Boston. Figure 1 lists the initial advisory and editorial boards. Mann hoped that the Center might be able to publish four issues of the journal each year. Fig. 1.

  • Measuring and Fostering the Progress of Societies Second OECD World Forum on Statistics, Knowledge and Policy Istanbul
    Measuring and Fostering the Progress of Societies Second OECD World Forum on Statistics, Knowledge and Policy Istanbul Meeting the World’s Health Challenges Day 3: Friday 29 June 2007 Chairperson’s Summary Chairperson: Harvey V. Fineberg Speaker: Margaret Chan, Director General, world Health Organization Speaker: Julio Frenk, Senior Fellow, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation; Chair of the Board, Institute for Health Metrics and Measurement, University of Washington; and former Minister of Health, Mexico Speaker: Denise Lievesley, Chief Executive, the Information Centre, National Health Service, UK and President-elect, International Statistical Institute; and Michael Wolfson, Assistant Chief Statistician, Analysis and Development, Statistics Canada Health is a universal human aspiration that is valued in its own right and serves as an indicator of broader social progress. The case of health illustrates how social indicators can function both as reflections of society’s progress and as measures of the success of programs and policy. This session explored some of the requirements to advance global health, the role of measurement to promote health reform, and the selection of measures that indicate individual and population health and the performance of health systems. Margaret Chan reflected on three themes that are central to making progress in health, particularly among the world’s poor. These are (1) health care financing, (2) equity, and (3) prevention of disease. In 47 of the world’s poorest countries, per capita health expenditures are less than 20USD, roughly half the minimum estimated as needed to attain essential health services. Residents of the poorest countries tend to pay a higher fraction of personal health costs out-of-pocket, and every year an estimated 150 million persons in the world suffer financial catastrophe because of health expenses.
