It is important for public health professionals to understanding of how historical events, such as colonialism and the world wars, led to a top-down approach in addressing health problems in low-income countries. Use the study materials and conduct your own research into historical approaches for mitigating international health concerns. In a 500-750 word paper, address the following:
Explain why the top-down approach to addressing health problems in low-income countries was established. Discuss how that approach has changed over time.
Consider the sustainable development goals (SDGs) and discuss how changes in the top-down approach to global health problems are represented in the goals.
