2023 #3 Sanjoy Bhattacharya (School of History, University of Leeds), "Who is the WHO?: Decolonising histories, theory and practice"

Resumo (em inglês)

US- and Euro-centric notions of the World Health Organization predominate historiography and, by extension, engagements of such scholars and global health practitioners. This talk challenges such assumptions, boring into the subjectivities that mark and inform such a worldview. As a counterpoint, this presentation examines the importance of histories of policy adaptation and practice, highlighting implementers of programmes as core members of all international and global health programmes, often, formally, as WHO employees and representatives.
