Dear all,
We kindly invite you to the third event of Global Health Law Groningen initiative on Friday 29th May from 15.00 – 17.00, on Van Swinderen Huys, Oude Boteringestraat, Club Lounge. This time we focus on the implementation of the right to health in practice. Please feel free to register in advance with Ms. Esther Knot (email stair@rug.nl).
How do you actually apply the right to health on the ground? The Danish Institute for Human Rights is developing the AAAQ Toolbox – an innovative assessment tool that offers practical guidance for state, business and civil society actors.
Senior advisor Mads Holst Jensen PhD and researcher Lena Kähler MSc will share their experiences working with a variety of actors including pharmaceutical companies to translate the right to health from principles into action on the ground.
15:00 – 16:30 Programme with DHRI speakers: Mads Holst Jensen PhD & Lena Kähler MSc
- The AAAQ toolbox (abstract also available at the GHLG blog)
- A tool to assess essential medicines and reproductive health
