“The Commission on Macroeconomics and Health (CMH), established in January 2000 by former WHO Director-General Dr Gro Harlem Brundtland, was made up of 18 of the world’s leading economists, public health experts, development professionals and policy-makers under the Chairmanship of Professor Jeffrey Sachs, then Director of the Center for International Development at Harvard University.”
One of the recommendations included;
"The IMF and the World Bank should work with recipient countries to incorporate the scaling up of health and other poverty reduction programmes into a viable macroeconomics framework."
