Global health and human rights (HR)Lecture one
Grey literature literature from organizations.
Human rights
Respect
Dignity
Equality (outcome, opportunity) it matters for all people compassion
Freedom
Security
Why do all people matter? It is because of compassion.
Human rights are complex. It is because we are a weird species.
How do you implement the principles? After WWOII, national community said. Never again.
Nevertheless, we began again.
Anxiety
We are anxious because we know we are going to die. We just don’t know when and how.
Not only about ourselves but about others as well, what they will do to use. This results in
walls and anxiety.
Anxiety about the future, how will we live and how will my children live? These people are
vulnerable for propaganda. They can be convinced easily.
We always looking for an ‘’us and a them’’. Us is always better. Our tribe is good and they
deserve respect
Tribalism
Us VS Them
It can be dramatic, covid is an example. ‘’You are vaccinated, or you are not. I want to talk to
you or not, depends on vaccine.’’ (polarized)
Defining yourself with one identity. This is not realistic. Everyone has more identities. You
play sports, be a sister and play music. These are all more identities.
Limits
Equality is difficult, equal in power? Not possible from the powerful people.
Universal declaration but it is written in laws
Fundamental rights are very limited. (States have the power to limit the laws)
But laws are necessary to set limits for civilians
- Proportionality
- Subsidiarity
- Temporality
State
We have outsourced HR to the states. We have outsourced them to the United Nations (UN).
There is a difference between states and nations
States are units, with monopoly of power and control
, Nations are people were born somewhere. The basis of nations means ‘’where I was born’’.
(First people of Canada, Aboriginals)
States are competitive.
Social order
Art 28: social and international order in which human right can be realized
Religion is important and growing. When the religions tell we have a problem it is for them.
What conditions need to be serious to be considered?
language
Maybe we need a different language to make the rights more accessible?
We only talk about human rights, are we the only ones? We are with many more, animals,
trees, rivers, mountains (essay 1).
Life produces life.
A bird is free to sing, it does not need the right from the states to sing. But we cut the trees,
so at last we (humans) take the right of the bird to sing his song everywhere he wants.
Essay question last year:
“More money should go to care for the migrants, even is this has to come from the budget
of elderly care”
Global health:
When you live in good health (more money, white, men) you live approximal 15 years longer
than someone who lives not that well
Unequal financial risk protection
1st 1000 days
The days for the first two years of babies with pregnancy. This is the most sensitive period s
in early brain development. From research it is found that children
Equity = equality in outcome. It is not the same input; it is about the outcome. Not equality
of opportunity.
Freedom
Global health public health
It is hard to measure the freedom. In the good of the health we take away peoples freedom
(covid).
UN? Tropical health, it is created for the colonised countries (1940).
Declaration of Alma-Ata, ‘’primary care and help for all’’ (1987). After this declaration, WHO
started global program on AIDS (1987). Sustainable Development Goals (2015), for human
rights and the right to health. How health helps on other human rights, housing, water etc.
