Rachel Silverman, senior policy analyst and assistant director of global health policy at CGD, and Janeen Madan Keller, policy analyst at CGD, discuss the efforts of CGD’s new working group on the future of global health procurement, and write, “The working group, launched in late July, brings together representatives from [low- and lower-middle-income country] governments, global procurement agents, funders, and international agencies, as well as experts on issues such as industrial organization, contract theory, and auctions. The final report, expected in late 2018, will outline the working group’s key findings and propose recommendations for near-term action” (8/3).
