Abstract

Two expert groups on global health from Norway and Denmark have recently made important strides in reenergizing the debate on the role of the Nordic countries in global health. Their tailored recommendations - emphasizing core values of human rights, equity, accountability, and local ownership alongside health security - have proven influential at a time when new forms of international collaboration in global health are urgently needed.
