This Resource Guide covers basic concepts in health and human rights. The Introduction provides a primer on the right to health and human rights, human rights-based approaches to policy and programming, human rights mechanisms, and general resources on health and human rights. The other nine chapters each focus on a different health issue or marginalized or vulnerable population. The nine chapters do not reflect an exhaustive list of health and human rights issue areas. Rather, they highlight priority program areas of the FXB Center and Open Society Foundations.
