  • Title: WHO in crisis.
    Author: Godlee F.
    Journal: BMJ; 1994 Nov 26; 309(6966):1424-8. PubMed ID: 7819856.
    Abstract:
    Media attention has been focused on the leadership of the World Health Organisation, rather than on the real factors that limit WHO's effectiveness. These factors relate to the organisation's structure and also to its current priorities, methods, and management. This article examines the objectives and strategy of WHO in view of financial constraints and donor countries' demands; WHO's stated goal of integrated primary health care; staff morale; and the growing dislocation between the regions and headquarters.
