Introduction to the programme. Programme. Global Forum for Health Research Forum 2009: Innovating for the health of all, Havana, Cuba 16–20 November 2009, p. 2.
In The 10/90 Report on Health Research 1999, the Global Forum reported that “Investment in health research and development by the public and private sectors amounts to about US $56 billion a year. Most of this—a staggering 90%—is spent on research into health problems that concern only 10% of the world’s population. As a result, only 10% of the limited funds available for health research is currently used to help improve the health of 90% of the world’s population.” See http://www.globalforumhealth.org/Media-Publications/ Publications/10-90-Report-on-Health-Research-1999.
