PHR Action Center

Campaign Unavailable

We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit Physicians for Human Rights.

The short explanation of this alert was:

The reauthorization of the US Global AIDS Bill (PEPFAR)-now the single largest AIDS program in history-is a huge victory for the millions of people affected by HIV/AIDS around the globe. PHR members made reauthorization a reality and tripled the price of the original program to $48 billion.

However, our work is far from over. In order to attain the right to health worldwide, we must ensure effective and integrated health systems which are responsive to national and local priorities, and accessible to all. If implemented with a visionary, rights-based approach, PEPFAR can fight AIDS and make the right to health a reality.

The task of implementing and improving this lifesaving program will fall to the new President. The powerful voice of health professionals is needed to hold the next Administration accountable to the commitments outlined in the PEPFAR-and to creating a vision of global health that is rights based.

Please sign this petition calling on the next President to ensure that the right to health becomes a reality for all.
