Mujaheed Shaikh from the Hertie School of Governance and a health economist by training, discusses the broad field of Sustainable Development Goals with regard to the private sector. He raises the question whether one needs the private sector at all: How and to what degree is the private sector engaged with the SDGs? And how does the private sector contribute to the intertwined biology-environment-lifestyle-complex for health, which is brought to discussion within this symposium on "Sustainable Development Goals: Good Health for All"?
