Statement on Bangladesh Unrest
Solidarity Statement
People’s Health Movement (PHM) - Global
Bangladesh is currently experiencing a turbulent period that began with a demand for quota reform in early July. What started off as a peaceful protest by the university students against the quota system has transformed into a full-fledged crisis affecting the lives and well-being of the citizens due to a nationwide crackdown by state authorities.

Stop spending development funds on for-profit private healthcare providers
We, the undersigned, are calling for a stop to funding from Development Finance Institutions to private for-profit healthcare providers.
Mounting evidence shows that this funding is going to expensive out-of-reach private hospitals and clinics in low- and middle-income countries that are widening healthcare inequalities, exacerbating poverty and gender-based discrimination and violating human rights. Far from advancing progress towards Universal Health Coverage as governments have committed, this form of development finance is undermining it.

PHM France: Call from unions and associations "Together against the far right. Let's ensure the defeat of the extreme right on July 7!
Faced with the deadly prospect of a Rassemblement National government, we call on political parties and voters to take a democratic and republican leap forward!
The decisive second round of voting takes place at the end of the week. In a very large number of constituencies, there is a Rassemblement National candidate who could win on July 7 in the event of a three-way tie.
We call on the political parties to decide to maintain a single candidacy against the extreme right wherever it is in a position to win.

What is happening at the 77th World Health Assembly- 2024? And an Introduction to the WHO Tracker
By Dr. T. Sundararaman and David Legge
Every year in the last week of May, the representatives of 194 countries who are the Member States of World Health Organization (WHO) meet at Geneva in the World Health Assembly (WHA) to endorse a number of reports and adopt a number of resolutions. Considering the high prevalence of international meetings that amount to little more than discussions without subsequent action, it might be alluring to overlook the importance of the annual WHA. But that would be a mistake.

The case of the Health Work Committees (HWC), West Bank, Palestine
Founded in the 80s during the first Intifada, the Health Work Committees have played a crucial role providing health services to the Palestinians living in the West Bank, Palestine. Hundreds of thousands health services are provided every year, lots of them related with the brutal Israeli occupation. The last couple of years the Israeli repression against the Health Work Committees intensified. The headquarters of HWC, one of the most important health organizations in Palestine, were raided several times.

Health Before Market, Let's Change Europe Video Conference 7 september
The COVID pandemic finally convinced even the most skeptical: public health is, and must more than ever be, a concern for politicians. Submitting it to the laws of the market is a crime.
Nobody would dare saying that public health is exclusively a national matter and that Europe has no powers in this area. However, European cornerstones such as the golden rules of budgetary convergence, free competition, freedom of establishment, etc. pose an enormous risk to public health.
