The state and development of global health / 中华疾病控制杂志

ABSTRACT

The rapid development of the globalization process has brought global health problems and made global health a hotspot in the world. China’s “One Belt and One Road” initiative has strengthened economic and trade exchanges between China and Asia, Africa, Europe, and has also increased health risks such as the spread of infectious diseases, disease spectrum, and lifestyle changes, posing challenges to the development of global health in China. Based on the history of global health, this paper made a brief review of the current status and future development of global health research. It pointed out that China’s global health research started late and had many shortcomings. In the context of the One Belt And One Road initiative, We should seize opportunities and meet challenges to contribute to the construction of "Healthy China" and the promotion to global health.
