tion for global health?
3. What are the key principles of global health leadership? How will a universal definition of
global health contribute to successful leadership?
4. How do public health, international health, and global health overlap?
5. How is the profession of nursing uniquely poised to contribute to global health?
6. How does interprofessional collaboration affect global health outcomes? When should this col-
laboration occur? What is hindering this collaboration and how can you counter that?
7. How can the 2010 Institute of Medicine (IOM) recommendations be applied on a global scale?
What are the challenges in applying these?
, CHAPTER 2

Health Issues

applied to help manage other infectious illnesses? Why or why not?
