abstract: 'Evidence-based advocacy underpins the sustainable delivery of quality,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
publicly guaranteed, and universally available palliative care. More
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
than 60 million people in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) have
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
no or extremely limited access to either palliative care services or
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
essential palliative care medicines (e.g., opioids) on the World Health
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Organization Model List. Indeed, only 12\% of the global palliative care
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
need is currently being met. Palliative care advocacy works to bring
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
this global public health inequity to light. Despite their expertise,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
palliative care practitioners in LMICs are rarely invited to health
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
policymaking tables - even in their own countries - and are
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
underrepresented in the academic literature produced largely in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
high-income world. In this paper, palliative care experts from
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Bangladesh, Colombia, Egypt, Sudan, Uganda, and Zambia affiliated with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the International Association for Hospice \& Palliative Care Advocacy
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Focal Point Program articulate the urgent need for evidence-based
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
advocacy, focusing on significant barriers such as urban/rural divides,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cancer-centeredness, service delivery gaps, opioid formulary
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
limitations, public policy, and education deficits. Their advocacy is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
situated in the context of an emerging global health narrative that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
stipulates palliative care provision as an ethical obligation of all
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
health systems. To support advocacy efforts, palliative care evaluation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and indicator data should assess the extent to which LMIC practitioners
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
lead and participate in global and regional advocacy. This goal entails
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
investment in transnational advocacy initiatives, research investments
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in palliative care access and cost-effective models in LMICs, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
capacity building for a global community of practice to capture the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
attention of policymakers at all levels of health system governance. (c)
