Asthma is responsible for considerable global morbidity and health-care costs. Substantial progress was made against key outcomes such as hospital admissions with asthma and mortality in the 1990s and early 2000s, but little improvement has been observed

We aim to provide our view of where we are and where we need to go as a community of clinicians and researchers who tackle the public health problem of asthma.
