Health / Sanity
Health and Sanitation, a fundamental right?!
The right to health and the right to sanitation are closely linked. Health is essential for any human being, since its lack does not allow living fully. The enjoyment of the highest degree of health that can be achieved is one of the fundamental rights of every human being.
The right to health guarantees that citizens access the health system without discrimination based on sex, race, age, ethnicity, religion, etc.
The right to health implies having access to drinking water, sanitation, food, housing and information in relation to health.
In the times we live in, there is a great need in this field of action, whether due to horrendous expenses, lack of medications, psychological help during an illness or after overcoming it, etc.
