    The importance of Global Health
    Living in a "global village" entails a new definition to health and wellbeing. Not only that natural disasters, epidemic outbreaks, and climate change know no national boundaries and have no citizenship, but it is also that health status, body constitution and quality of life are becoming more and more a global matter. Global health is the study of health in the context of globalization. It emerges as an interdisciplinary field incorporating both theory and social involvement, including disciplines such as medicine, epidemiology, sociology, economics, political sciences, ethics and more. It broadens the traditional medical outlook on health, considering environmental and social determinants as afflicting one's health. It considers the gap between and within countries as underpinning the unequal distribution of resources; it reckons health to be impacted by ecological factors and examines how class, race and gender inequalities affect access to health care services.
