It is not necessary that it is focused on health! 
It sounds as too much tayloring. 
Anything re food security will do it as well. Also there are several other issues that IPI is trying to deal with that 
will resonate well with Bill - such as bioterorism, rule of law, climate change etc. 
The main issue is to demonstrate that they are not yet another institute that just exists (to publish reports and hels 
meetigs). Is there anything re a track record what was accomplished? 
I see that your close friend Terje is a Chairman. Is Thorbjom planning to take it over? Is the HQ moving to 
Vienna? 
I have a number of documents including the most recent financials — but please send me anything else you think 
would be uselful. 
Also it seems to me that David Rubesnstein would be a perfect donnor for this. I think he is also talking a 
chariman position at CFR soon.

Health 
The planet is facing challenges to biological security, including pandemic diseases (like malaria, tuberculosis and 
HIV/AIDS), resurgent diseases (like SARS), or accidental or deliberately perpetrated outbreaks. Several regions 
suffer from hunger caused by food insecurity or conflict. Some of the world's most vulnerable people face 
double jeopardy by falling victim to counterfeit medicines. 
To improve health it is essential to reduce violence and promote peace. As stated in the World Health 
Organization's Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion (1986), peace is the primary condition for health. 
EFTA00713260

Armed conflict, instability, and state fragility claim lives, disrupt livelihoods, and halt delivery of essential 
services, such as health and education. The relationship among these factors is established, but remains complex. 
First of all, armed conflict and public health interact in many different ways. Besides the obvious, but important 
fact that people are killed, injured, disabled, abused or traumatized due to armed conflict, it can be said that in 
most countries the greatest impacts on civilian mortality are indirect, and nonviolent deaths far outnumber 
violent ones. In Darfur, 87 percent of civilian deaths between 2003 and 2008 were nonviolent.[ I] Some indirect 
effects of armed conflict on global health include: 
I) 
impeding access of health professionals and humanitarian agencies to populations in need 
(conflict-affected countries have on average less than one health professional per 10,000 people); 
2) "flight" of health professionals from conflict zones for safety issues (health workers are often 
targeted by government security forces as well); 
3) 
lack of supplies and basic equipments in hospitals and clinics in conflict zones, as well as 
uneasy access to health facilities for population in needs, also due to deterioration of infrastructure 
and transportation; 
4) decrease in government expenditure on healthcare; 
5) food shortages due to damaged agricultural structures, collapse of the economy, aid deliberately 
withheld, and disruption of the family unit. 
6) three to four times higher under-age five mortality rates in conflict zones than the rest of the 
world; 
7) sharp decline in basic childhood immunization in conflict zones; 
8) 
highest rates of maternal deaths due to childbirth complications and other debilitating 
conditions in conflict-ridden or post-conflict states; 
9) increased incidents of sexual violence towards women and children, with greater numbers of 
sexually transmitted diseases, as well physical and psychological trauma; 
10) increased incidence of infectious diseases (malaria, cholera, measles) during conflict due to 
malnutrition, unsanitary conditions, lack of clean water, etc. 
Not only can these diseases travel across borders, but they can also claim such a high number of victims in 
conflict-affected countries to lead to further political and military instability, and state failure. 
In fact, states characterized as fragile or failed tend to have far worse population health indicators than states at 
comparable levels of development.[2] As of today, for example, no low-income fragile or conflict-affected 
country has yet achieved a single Millennium Development Goal (MDGs).[3] Poor health indicators are a 
product of inadequate governance and service development. Moreover, fragile states tend to be affected by 
humanitarian crises that extend for years. In other words, a context of continuing crises and emergencies, 
combined with weak or non-existent local and national institutions, can undermine health improvements or 
nullify health investments and programs in the long-term. 
While armed conflict and instability undermine health goals, the opposite is also true. Investments in health, 
conflict resolution and statebuilding can be mutually reinforcing. Conflict resolution and peacebuilding 
measures can help prevent or lessen the impact of the above negative outcomes of armed conflict on public 
health. At the same time, the position of medical professionals in society, given their neutrality, credibility, and 
equality, can be a precious resource during negotiations, as are health-related cease-fires. The fact that health 
issues are of interest to all warring parties can contribute to this advantage. 
Moreover, health investment can contribute to statebuilding and legitimacy of the institutions. In the long term, 
stronger health systems can improve the health of the population, leading to greater productivity, stronger 
economies, less violence, and state stability. Evidence also indicates that improved health services can increase 
trust in state institutions, thus contributing to the authority and legitimacy of the government.[41
