Strengthening the Right to Health and Equity in International Law: What can we do? – A collaborative virtual session

Join the SHEM for a virtual session on equity, the right to health, and strengthening international law to achieve both.

The Sustainable Health Equity Movement’s Human Rights Working Group has developed a draft statement proposing a set of actions that States and other relevant actors should take to advance the right to health and health equity within international law.

The Working Group invites you to a virtual session to share your inputs on how to strengthen the statement’s proposals to make international law a more powerful tool to achieve health equity and increase State accountability on the right to health obligations.
