Globalization and Health is a peer-reviewed open-access public health journal from BioMed Central that covers the topic of globalization and its effects on health. Globalization and Health was the first open access global health journal available when it came out in 2005.[2] By 2022, the editors in chief were Ronald Labonté, Greg Martin, and Katerini Storeng.[3][4]

Globalization and Health was one of six out of 100 journals to receive the highest possible "Five Wheel" impact rating[5] from an SDG Impact Intensity™ journal rating system analyzing data from 2016-2020 to assess relevance to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).[6][7] It has been positively rated in research on inclusivity in academic publication.[8]

History

Globalization and Health was the first open access global health journal available when it appeared in April 2005. It was first announced under the leadership of Greg Martin[9][2][10][11] (then at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine) and Derek Yach (Yale University).[12][13]

From 2008 to 2013, Martin was joined as co-editor-in-chief by Emma Pitchforth of the London School of Economics (LSE Health).[14][15]

By 2022, the editors in chief were Greg Martin (Ireland), Ronald Labonté (Canada), and Katerini Storeng (Norway).[16][4]

Focus

Globalization and Health offers an international platform for original research, knowledge sharing, and debate on the topic of globalization and its effects on health.[10] Globalization affects individual and population health in multiple ways, requiring societies to adapt. Processes of global change shape determinants of health including lifestyle, employment, housing, education, and sanitation. Globalization is restructuring human societies, leading to new patterns of health and disease. Globalization is affecting financing, regulation and marketing of healthcare and services.[17]

Through its publication history, several assessments have been made of its content and how it has changed over time.[18][3][10]

Globalization and Health publishes articles under the following sections; Development, Disease, Economics and trade, Environment, Governance for health, Health in foreign policy, Health systems, Migration and mobilities, Psychosocial impacts, Theory, models and methods.

Abstracting and indexing

The journal is abstracted and indexed in PubMed Central, CABI, EMBASE, and Scopus.[19][20]
