Regional Integration, Health Policy and Global Health

Abstract: Although regional integration processes are mainly shaped around trade, economic and security objectives, health does come into the picture as it has an interface with each of those domains. Yet, reviews of relationships between regional integration and global and public health have so far been confined to specific organizations, geographic areas and thematic issues. This article, in contrast, attempts a comprehensive cross-cutting analysis of such relationships on a worldwide basis. The article demonstrates a… Show more

“…Our decision to include it as the only non-member state based regional organisation in the study was justified by its relevance at the time of study as a regional science funding platform mandated by NEPAD for this purpose in 2015. We judged this decision acceptable given consensus among partners and expert networks about the unique position of AAS with its mandate expanded in collaboration with an AU agency to accelerate and fund excellence in African science, including HSciR [1] . For each regional organisation, AH collected the following data from their websites: relevant sub-organisations, headquarters location, official mandate for regional cooperation, geographic sub-region of the organisation's mandate (according to the AU's five regions), member states, description of the organisation's role in supporting HSciR, and links to HSciR specific activity (eg, a programme, project, policy).…”

“…Endnotes [1] Since the time this research was conducted and data analysed in April 2021, with the paper submitted in May 2021, the AAS is no longer serving in this capacity as host and implementer of a financing platform due to an internal governance crisis. 48 The Alliance for Accelerating Excellence in Science in Africa initiative has been re-established as the African Science Foundation in December 2021, temporarily hosted by Price Waterhouse Cooper in Kenya.…”

“…Regional organisations are increasingly involved in health policy matters within their broader sectoral integration mandates, [1] including in Africa [2,3]. Public health emergencies such as the 2014 Ebola outbreak and current COVID-19 pandemic have highlighted the unique roles that regional organisations in Africa can play in coordination, resource pooling, or scientific leadership when they have institutional capacity for these [4][5][6].…”

“…Such social policy commitments have 'thickened' over time and considerably vary in the forms they take worldwide (Bianculli and Hoffman, 2016;Deacon et al, 2010;Nikogosian, 2020;Robertson et al, 2016;Söderbaum, 2016;Van Der Vleuten, 2016;Yeates, 2007Yeates, , 2014cYeates, , 2019. Northern world-regionalisms, notably the European Union (EU), have attracted the lion's share of research, but there is increasing interest in and research on Southern social regionalisms (Berrón et al, 2013;Bianculli, 2018;Deacon et al, 2010;Nikogosian, 2020;Olivet and Brennan, 2010;Söderbaum, 2007;Yeates, 2014aYeates, , 2017Yeates and Deacon, 2010;Yeates and Rigirrozzi, 2015). The Sustainable Development Goals' (SDGs) inclusion of regionalisation processes, regionalist strategies and regional actors has been a source of renewed interest in the potential of more 'muscular' forms of world-regional social policy and other sorts of international partnerships supportive of health and social welfare on a regional scale (Yeates, 2017).…”

“…Nascent world-regional social policies are evidenced in common regulatory frameworks, promoting (or instituting) social/human rights and undertaking programmes of redistribution across a range of social sectors. Such social policy commitments have ‘thickened’ over time and considerably vary in the forms they take worldwide (Bianculli and Hoffman, 2016; Deacon et al, 2010; Nikogosian, 2020; Robertson et al, 2016; Söderbaum, 2016; Van Der Vleuten, 2016; Yeates, 2007, 2014c, 2019).
