Health supply chains are necessary for effective health service delivery as they not only provide appropriate health outputs but also have the potentials to create and deliver cost-effective outcomes in line with the economic, social, and cultural conditions of a country. There is a need, therefore, to investigate ways to create functionally appropriate enabling environments that will largely be dependent upon the economic developmental levels in which health supply chains are considered. Under this backdrop, the current study helps in identifying the key enablers for the health supply chains which when present will contribute towards strengthening the health coverage and improving overall well-being. The enabling environment of health supply chains will include the broad structure within which individuals and organizations function. The different enablers are grouped into four broad categories namely (i) people and processes, (ii) systems and data, (iii) investments, and (iv) policies. The study attempts to delineate an integrated model of health supply chain enablers and their role in improving overall well-being. The model is further investigated with Kenya as a case study to understand the impact of the enablers on quality of life and improved well-being.

“…Many of the cases discussed here merit "shared accountability," a legal concept that "recognizes that more than one entity may be responsible for the same wrongful act" (Majcher 2015). Numerous scholars have sought to apply this concept to human rights violations that involve a range of actors working alongside or at the behest of state authorities, including international organizations, private companies, as well as cases involving public-private partnerships (Clarke 2014).…”

Kidnapped, Trafficked, Detained? The Implications of Non-state Actor Involvement in Immigration Detention

Global migration challenges are reinforcing long-standing trends that involve shifting immigration control measures beyond national borders and incorporating new actors into detention systems. Proposals to shape migration management policies-including discussions on developing a Global Compact for Migration-recognize the need to involve a range of actors to implement humane and effective strategies. However, when observed through the lens of immigration detention, some policy trends raise challenging questions, particularly those that lead to increasing roles for non-state actors in migration control. This article critically assesses a range of new actors who have become involved in the deprivation of liberty of migrants and asylum seekers, describes the various forces that appear to be driving their engagement, and makes a series of recommendations concerning the role of non-state actors and detention in global efforts to manage international migration. These recommendations include:

“…According to Clarke (2014), these partnerships -which were initiated to achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) in health -were considered to have unleashed the best of human creativity. Over time, however, the power they acquired over international and national organizations has adversely affected people's health.…”

“…A model for expansion of coverage is a mere technical artefact based on the dubious assumptions that an increase in finances, services and coverage through partnerships will help fill the three dimensional gap, lead to a reduction in cost sharing by users, help add providers, and extend coverage to the uninsured. Unfortunately, these remain assumptions, as the additional private providers do not necessarily share the values of primary health care (Clarke, 2014). This model does not explain why public financing has shrunk and cannot be expanded, when countries like Brazil and South Africa have relied on public financing and proven its cost effectiveness (PHM et al, 2014: 114, 120).…”

This contribution joins the debate on the politics of global health, and specifically inequality in health. Focusing on three recent and pertinent reports, it examines two opposing perspectives for dealing with this inequality. Driven by the global financial crisis, one perspective attempts to validate the intervention of global capital through markets, technology and research funding in global health; it promotes a uniform model of universal health care based on medical care through insurances, public-private partnerships and a dominant private sector. The other perspective arises from the specific historical experiences of nation states in which health has been treated as a commodity. It highlights the negative impacts on global health of neoliberal reforms, such as reductions in welfare and increasing inequalities, and critiques the optimization of profits from health services, which undermines the government's role in health care. The article analyses the historical evolution of these perspectives and the two kinds of movements that emerged across the globe. Using the case of India, the authors argue that where neoliberalism prevails, health movements must link up with broader democratic and political movements that work for the realignment of structural inequalities and policy shifts for the well-being of the majority.
