Abstract

While access to palliative care is recognized internationally as a human right, from a global health perspective, there are many gaps within the professional services that provide palliative care together with corresponding health inequities for people needing to access palliative care. Palliative care development, or the building and expansion of palliative care services, represents a key strategy in addressing those gaps and health inequities.
