Creating an Africa-wide People's Health Movement

Our manifesto As the IPHU participants from the 'Africa Group’ we have agreed that in order to strengthen the movement, we would each need to first start by working locally, strengthening the PHM activities in our respective countries, Ethiopia, Ghana, South Africa, Uganda and Zimbabwe. We commit to support each other in developing and strengthening the PHM in each of our countries as we work towards an Africa-wide People’s Health Movement. The role of PHM is to bring together organisations and individuals already working for the Right to Health under the banner of this shared vision of “Health for all, now!” PHM Africa is an organisation, not a movement. Anyone who endorses the charter and is working in the struggle for the right to health for all can join PHM Africa. The objectives and activities of our campaign are defined and developed by our members. We will strive to further the movement starting on this blog by connecting with others, sharing experiences,...

PHM-SA Right to health training, Philipi.

Background The training was organised as part of the Right to Health Campaign being led by the People’s Health Movement (PHM) in South Africa . The Campaign was launched in September 2007 and has three components – Capacity building, media and testimonies. The training is conceived as part of capacity building and raising awareness in communities about the right to health and what that entails. It complements the other components of the campaign, by, for example, empowering the participants to go out and train others, and allow community groups to participate in a process of gathering of stories related to the right to health. The training held at Bonne Esperance was the first of the PHM’s workshops in the campaign so was a learning experience for all. In all, there were 22 participants from 4 organisations (Mamelani, Stukkende Plaas action group, Proudly Manenberg and Bonne Esperance), as well as 7 facilitators from PHM. Programme The programme ran from 9am to 3.30pm . ...

Access to safe abortion remains a dream for many women in Uganda-Universal Health Coverage Must Include Access to Medical Abortion!

As we mark the International Universal Health Coverage day, December 12 , under the theme “Keep the Promise”, it is crucial to highlight the World Health Organization (WHO)’s policy incoherence regarding misoprostol and mifepristone. Is the WHO keeping the promise of delivering universal health for all? WHO’s policy incoherence regarding the status of misoprostol and mifepristone constitutes a significant barrier to wider access to safe medical abortion. WHO must keep the promise of UHC and unequivocally endorse prompt low cost access to misoprostol and mifepristone including appropriate advice on usage and precautions. This comment addresses the global issue taking Uganda as a case study.   Access to essential health care is the ‘promise’ of Universal Health Coverage (UHC). It is also a fundamental human right. The mortality burden globally associated with unsafe abortion is horrendous and could be dramatically reduced if prompt low cost access to safe medical abortion ...
