Highlighting innovative research and practice, academics and practitioners from the Global South and North examine key strategies for success in the future of health and the SDGs, focusing on holistic structural approaches. Bringing different voices and perspectives to the fore, they cover a wide range of dimensions to the challenge, including: inequality, power and participation; health systems; gender-based discrimination and violence; sexual and reproductive health and rights; food and the environment; urbanisation; and governance and accountability. Ultimately, the Companion embodies a vision for change, offering practical insights from the inclusive work of social enterprises, NGOs, cross-sector integrated approaches to health, and reform dynamics in global and national-level institutions and governance systems.
