SUMMARY

Summary: UNCTAD-WHO Joint Publication edited by Simonetta Zarrilli of UNCTAD's Trade in Services Section and Colette Kinnon of WHO's Task Force on Health Economics. This publication, prepared with the support of WHO, compiles papers issuing from the UNCTAD Expert Meeting on Strengthening the Capacity and Expanding Exports of Developing Countries in the Services Sector: Health Services (June 1997). The first part explores a broad range of questions that both developing and industrialized countries may wish to bear in mind as they weigh up the opportunities and drawbacks of fostering trade in health services. The second part focuses on the development perspective, and contains case studies from countries in the developing world. [English only]
