With a sharp divergence between justifications for global health funding and the countries and diseases to which funding is disbursed, this study conducts a quantitative analysis of the determinants of U.S. financing for the 171 countries receiving development assistance for health in 2009. The project seeks to identify the key drivers for U.S. global health financing by country and facilitate research on how to make global health financing work better.
