PRICELESS proudly hosts the South African launch of the Lancet Series on the Commercial Determinants of Health.
The series is a ground-breaking exposé of the products and practices that are collectively called the commercial determinants of health (CDOH). This collection defines the CDOH, shows how they function and provides extensive evidence of how human and planetary health are damaged by commercial actors and entities.
The series calls for a power shift that prioritises health over profits and suggests specific actions for public health practitioners, civil society organisations, governments, and academics to facilitate this shift to turn the tide of health and planetary harm. PRICELESS Karen Hofman and Agnes Erzse are the authors of this important series.
