Abstract
The
World
Health
Organization
(WHO)
defines
health
as
“a
state
of
complete
physical,
mental
and
social
well-‐being
and
not
merely
the
absence
of
disease
or
infirmity.”
In
developing
countries,
the
WHO
definition
of
health
is
far
from
being
met.
Because
of
globalization,
the
issues
that
are
being
faced
in
those
countries
are
of
great
importance
to
developing
countries.
Social
justice
and
a
better
understanding
of
global
public
goods
have
created
a
strong
incentive
for
action.
The
forms
of
aid
provided
have
evolved
over
time
from
military
aid
to
modern
day
heath,
education
and
social
innovations.
The
many
international
aid
organizations
attempt
to
improve
the
lives
of
those
who
are
less
fortunate.
These
organizations
include
official
development
assistance,
Non-‐Governmental
Organizations
and
finally
Private
Foundations.
