Advances in Global Health (AGH)

Advances in Global Health is an open-access, online-only journal from University of California Press and the UC Global Health Institute, which seeks to take a new approach to publishing research in the field of global health by aligning the journal with several of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Advances in Global Health is a peer-reviewed, open access, research journal that is focused on advancing health equity throughout the world, and is committed to decolonizing and democratizing global health. This entails purposefully giving prominence to knowledge and knowledge production from the low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). In so doing, Advances in Global Health is committed to the following: 1) having an editorial board which is representative of LMICs; b) publishing knowledge from the LMICs; 3) focusing on issues that are pertinent to the LMICs; and 4) securing representation of lead authors from the LMICs. The core focus of Advances in Global Health are the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, a set of 17 interconnected goals with 169 targets that the 191 UN member nations have agreed to achieve by 2030. The SDGs were originally published in 2015 on the 70th anniversary of the UN, to set out a “supremely ambitious and transformational vision.... a world free of poverty, hunger, disease and want, where all life can thrive.” Advances in Global Health centers health as its focus and promotes an interdisciplinary approach to studying the bi-directional relationship between other key sectors, e.g. poverty, food security, gender equality and planetary health on health outcomes.
