Geneva Health Files
In today’s edition we bring you a guest essay from a group of human rights scholars, keen on shaping the discussions towards a new Pandemic Accord in a way that reflects such considerations in the governance of pandemics. In this piece, they pick apart current provisions and suggest priorities for the on-going negotiations.
The authors say, “Framing the substance of the Pandemic Treaty, human rights must be central to global health obligations, as the right to health provides a central normative foundation in preparing for and responding to pandemics.”
We hope you enjoy reading this timely and important commentary on a somewhat neglected area in the on-going negotiations of global health law reforms.
