UN Task Team Report: Health in the post-2015 development agenda

A recent think piece by UNAIDS, UNICEF, UNFPA and WHO outlines how health could factor in the post-2015 development agenda. The authors argue that a single high-level health goal will be needed for health to retain its place “at the apex of development,” followed by a hierarchy of sector and programme-specific goals. This report frames the issues in preparation for a UN global consultation on how to include health in a post-2015 development agenda, set to take place towards the end of this year.
