Reflections on Progress and Shaping the Future of Maternal and Child Health in Global Health Law

Abstract

When Larry Gostin published the groundbreaking 2014 treatise on Global Health Law, building on the work of others like Virginia Leary, the field of global health law was still being developed. This treatise offered a comprehensive definition and understanding of global health law. Others, including myself, used Larry's work to formulate policy recommendations and strengthen references to the right to health in global health.
