NHNatalie Huls

Key Points

  • Access to health is vital for realizing the right to health, as without it this right becomes negligible.
  • International conventions and declarations imply the need for access to health, despite a lack of direct mention.
  • The relationship between access and rights highlights gaps in current health provisions for individuals.
  • Addressing access to health may strengthen the enforcement of human rights commitments globally.

Abstract

Access to health is an often-overlooked aspect of the right to health. Without practical access, the right to health becomes an empty promise. International human rights conventions and declarations do not directly mention access to health, but the above comment on the International Covenant on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights does address the issue.
