Add your voice today!*
------------------------------

We would like to encourage you to add your voices to the UN Special
Rapporteur's report on access to medicines and the right to health. Your
voices will significantly contribute to integrating women's human rights
and a feminist perspective to the mandate of the Special Rapporteur on the
right to health.

*Background Information*

Pursuant the Human Rights Council resolution 17/14, Anand Grover, the UN
Special Rapporteur on the right to health, is working on a study on
existing challenges with regard to access to medicines in the context of
the right to health, ways to overcome them and good practices, to be
presented to the Council at its twenty-third session in June 2013.



*Add Your Voice *

In preparation for this study, the questionnaire has been prepared by the
UN Special Rapporteur to seek the views of relevant stakeholders on this
important subject. It is an important opportunity  for women in the Asia
Pacific to critically inform the Special Rapporteur on the situation of
access to medicines and the right to health in the region. Your
contribution in sharing issues, persistent structural challenges,
 promising practices and innovative strategies will be crucial in informing
the report.
