Conclusion 330 $amportant links between health and human rights are increasingly recognised, and human rights can be viewed as one of the social determinants of health. A human rights framework provides an excellent foundation for advocacy on health inequalities, a value-based alternative to views of health as a commodity, and an opportunity to move away from public health action being based on charity. This text demystifies systems set up for the protection and promotion of human rights globally, regionally, and nationally. It explores the use and usefulness of rights-based approaches as an important part of the toolbox available to health and welfare professionals and community members working in a variety of settings to improve health and reduce health inequities.Global in its scope, Health Equity, Social Justice, and Human Rights presents examples from all over the world to illustrate the successful use of human rights approaches in fields such as HIV/AIDS, improving access to essential drugs, reproductive health, women?s health, and improving the health of marginalised and disadvantaged groups.Understanding human rights and their interrelationships with health and health equity is essential for public health and health promotion practitioners, as well as being important for a wide range of other health and social welfare professionals. This text is valuable reading for students, practitioners, and researchers concerned with combating health inequalities and promoting social justice. 606 $aHealth services accessibility 606 $aEquality$xHealth aspects 606 $aMedical policy 606 $aHuman Rights 606 $aSocial Justice 606 $aGlobal Health 615 0$aHealth services accessibility. 615 0$aEquality$xHealth aspects 615 0$aMedical policy. 615 2$aHuman Rights. 615 2$aSocial Justice. 615 2$aGlobal Health. 676 $a362.1 700 $aMcKay$b Fiona H.$01601953 702 $aTaket$b A.
