R4D’s Gina Lagomarsino and David de Ferranti are two of the co-authors of a Lancet commentary published in the November 7, 2009 issue. The piece calls on policy makers to focus more on their role as stewards of both public and private actors within the health system.

The commentary highlights key points from a comprehensive R4D report on the same topic which was published in May.

Other co-authors include Ariel Pablos-Mendez, Stefan Nachuk, Sania Nishtar and Suwit Wibulpolprasert.
