dc.descriptionThe South East Asia Regional Symposium on Implications of Public Policy on Health Status and Quality of Life provides a significant forum and opportunity to public policy makers, planners and researchers to delve into issues of considerable importance to all developing countries in this region. It is well-known that health status of our people is not determined by the health sector alone9 and the policies and programmes of most other, sectors do have a bearing on the health and quality of life of the people. This symposium will explore clearer understanding of the public policy - health linkages, and enable country representatives to identify leads for public policy making in their respective countries, as part of their strategy to march towards Health for All by the Year 2000.' The Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore (IIM-B) is privileged to collaborate with WHO in conducting this important symposium. As part of the preparatory work IIM-B has developed the background papers for use during the symposium. This volume incorporates the materials for distribution to participants. It will be observed that the modules presented here have been based entirely on secondary sources of data, and discussions with many professionals actively engaged in research in related areas, or administering public policies. We wish to put on record our gratitude to all of them, but we are constrained by space to mention everyone individually. Many institutions and government departments have freely extended their infrastructural support to us for providing us the wealth of information based on which the modules have been prepared. We express our heartfelt thanks to all these organizations. The academic work for preparation of the modules was shared by an indisciplinary team of faculty members: policies (Dr. Shyamal Roy and Dr. Jagadish C. Bhatia), industrialization policies (Dr. Ranajit Dhar and Dr. Basu Ghosh), and urbanization policies (Dr. Vinod K. Tewari and Dr. Basu Ghosh) with Dr. Basu Ghosh responsible for overall coordination and editing. The faculty team benefitted a great deal from close interactions with Dr. Michael R. Reich, Director, Takemi Program in International Health, Harvard University School of Public Health. We wish to express our thanks to Dr.(Ms) A.Hammad (SHS/ISC) of WHO-HG for her guidance. We are grateful to Dr. U.Ko Ko, Regional Director,WHO-SEARO for encouraging us by seeking our collaboration, and Dr. Uton M. Rafei (Director, HSI,SEARO),Dr. D.B Bisht (Director of Programme Management, SEARO) and Dr. Sonja Roesma (Regional Adviser - PHC, SEARO) for their active collaboration and support. We are grateful to Prof. J. Philip, Director, Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore and Prof. S. Ramaswamy, Dean (EP), IIM-Bangalore for their active support and encouragement. Last but not the least, I wish to convey my appreciation and thanks to our efficient secretaries who ungrudgingly obliged us by typing and re-typing our numerous drafts and revisions.-
