People's Health Assembly 3 to be held in Cape Town, July 2012

The 3rd People’s Health Assembly (PHA3) to be held in Cape Town in July 2012.

Over the past several years, PHM Circles across the globe have made great strides toward the goal of “Health for All Now,” and PHA3 is an opportunity to take stock of all aspects of the movement. It will be an opportunity to analyze the current global health situation, celebrate strengths and accomplishments of PHM, and to strengthen the global network.

It is now time to start preparing for PHA3! 2011 will be used for mobilization within countries and regions, in a lead up to and in preparation for the 3rd PHA. We encourage all PHM friends to use existing events in 2011 for this mobilization; and for building PHM.

Please keep us informed of any regional events taking place that you think could be used for mobilization towards the Assembly. Activities can include:
reviewing and / or translating the People’s Charter for Health (if not already translated; we have it in over 40 languages already; see www.phmovement.org);
preparing discussion papers;
developing action plans and campaigns towards a shared agenda for people’s health ;
plan actions around a Right to Health campaign using the events to develop testimonies, case studies and discussion papers.

The PHM Global Secretariat welcomes your participation in the planning and implementation of this event. As with the previous 2 assemblies, PHA3 promises to be an exciting opportunity to share ideas and network with health rights activists from around the globe.
