No health without aid and development As global health academics at the University of Edinburgh, UK, it is our privilege to work in partnership with colleagues around the world to respond to the health and social challenges of our age. The UK's commitment to international development and aid is integral to that mission—health and development go hand-in-hand. The substantial cuts to the UK's Official Development Assistance budget announced on Feb 25, 2025 risk directly harming those who are already the most at risk and structurally marginalised around the world.

A group of University of Edinburgh academics, including CRH's Chelsea Morroni, have penned this open letter to the UK government, warning of the risks of cutting global aid to health outcomes around the world www.thelancet.com/journals/langlo/article... #GlobalHealth
