Summary
Focuses on two major obstacles confronting the health and human rights movement: the inadequate engagement of (i) established human rights non-governmental organizations and (ii) health professionals; also explains that judicial accountability has enhanced protection for the right to health and other health-related rights, and includes a sample of cases that signal how various tribunals have interpreted and applied health-related human rights.
