Abstract

This editorial outlines the background to the BMC Health Services Research collection on decolonizing global health. The discourse on decolonizing global health is gaining increasing momentum. These persistent 'voices' have coalesced into a 'movement'. Several commentators have critiqued the way global health continues to be structured and practiced. The colonial roots of global health dominance have come under an unprecedentedly intense spotlight amid pressure for reform.
