International conference on the human dimension of Africa's economic recovery and development: structural adjustment, health, nutrition and food aid in the African region by World Health Organization (WHO) regional office for Africa
1988
This paper addresses the problems arising from economic structural adjustment measures which nearly all countries in the region are having to make in response. to internal or external pressures. They stem from the fact that domestic production, especially of food and other primary products, is often declining due to drought, instability and other factors, while world prices and demand for most of these products are also stagnating or declining. The premise of the paper is that without "health for all", real development is not achieved, and ill health is a serious obstacle to socioeconomic development, at all levels from the individual to the national.
