Public Health and Human Rights: Evidence Based Approaches

Product Description

Human rights violations are underlying causes of adverse health outcomes for vulnerable people and populations nearly the world. Broadcast Health and Human Rights provides critical, evidence-based assessments and tools with which to investigate the role of rights abrogation in the health of populations — from repressive laws to social discord, gender-based violence, human trafficking, and violations in conflict.

Divided into three sections, this provocative work investigates how the complex interactions between rights and health can best be studied, analyzed, and remedied; how the efforts of human rights advocates affect health outcomes; and how modern broadcast health procedures can help in documenting, understanding, and preventing human rights violations. Part I illuminates the powerful relationship between rights work and broadcast health do in Thailand, Russia, Burma, and Plates and in U.S. prisons. Part II explores new methodologies and new uses of previous practices for rights-based broadcast health research. Part III confronts current policy approaches — such as Brazil’s integration of rights, HIV/AIDS programming, and the contradictory and puzzling global policies on illicit drugs — and offers recommendations for future programs and strategies.
