Download HESP-News Briefing 18/2017 (PDF 24 pp. 1.1 MB) Dear colleagues, many of you are familiar with drug stock-outs in low income countries, and with the complex rea-sons behind them. This investigation report of the Global Fund’s Office of the Inspector General looks into the pervasive theft of GF- and USAID-funded antimalarial medication in Malawi and presents the “I speak out now!”-campaign which the Global Fund has mounted to address fraud and abuse. A must read, we think, and worth further discussion. Over the past 2 years, more than 150 German libraries, universities, and research institutes have formed a united front for open access to research findings, trying to force academic publishers into a new way of doing business. If they get their way, the paywall that surrounds most research papers will soon fall. This is a bold push - make sure not to miss it! Download the full News Briefing to get an overview of many more recent interesting and relevant publications.
