Agriculture for Impact contributes to a new Commission in The Lancet exploring how development technologies contribute to global health.

Liz Wilson, Agriculture for Impact has contributed to a collaboration between The Lancet and Imperial College London: a Commission examining how medical technology should best be used to improve health in low- and middle-income countries. The report concludes that in many cases, medical technology—almost exclusively developed in rich countries—is simply inappropriate for use in poorer nations.

The Commission was published online on the 1^st August, in time for the opening of Imperial's Global Health Policy Summit in London.
