Abstract
This paper critically examines the Gates Foundation’s influence on global health and agriculture. While promoting technological solutions, its philanthrocapitalist model raises bioethical concerns regarding power imbalances, lack of democratic accountability, the promotion of GMO-based agricultural reforms, and the privatisation of public health systems. I argue that such practices reshape global health policy and food systems, often marginalising local knowledge and community participation.
