The nurse is concerned that a proposed health program lacks sufficient support for global health. What should be included in this program? (Select all that apply.)

1. Prevention activities
2. Strategic partnerships
3. Income measurements
4. Responses to local needs
5. Evidence-based knowledge


Correct Answer: 1, 2, 4, 5

The principles of global health have been described in various national and international documents, including the Global Health Strategy of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Strategic Plan 2010-2015. The underlying principles of global health include: using evidence-based knowledge to inform decisions; leveraging strengths through partnership and coordination; responding to local needs; building local capacities; ensuring a lasting, measurable impact, emphasizing prevention; and improving health equity. Income measurement is not a principle of global health.
