Global Burden of Disease (GBD) was first introduced in the early nineties and has since played important roles in health care and public health planning for international communities as well as NGO’s (Non-governmental Organizations). Despite the significant importance of the conceptual framework surrounding GBD, it has recently come to attention that the type of public health and statistical language utilized in the description of GBD projects can provide a barrier of conceptual understanding for policy makers and non-health care providers. Therefore this paper attempts to provide a conceptual framework of the GBD analysis as well as its impact along with advantages and disadvantages found during the implementation and utilization of the data presented by Turkish Burden of Disease Studies (TBoD) in the year 2002-2013 as well as 2017 and 2019 GBD estimates. |
