Smart International Reform Action: The Health Impact Fund


Global Health Speaker:

Dr. Thomas Pogge

Leitner Professor of Philosophy and International Affairs, Yale University.
Author of World Poverty and Human Rights.

Wednesday, May 2nd
4:30-6:00 pm
041 Haldeman Center

In 2008, Dr. Pogge co-authored The Health Impact Fund (HIF), which lays out the plan to make life-saving medicines accessible for everyone. HIF is envisioned as a new way of stimulating research and development of life-saving pharmaceuticals. Financed mainly by governments, the HIF would offer pharmaceutical firms the option to be rewarded according to a new product’s health impact, if they agree to sell it at cost.
