HPHR X HEALTH RIGHTERS

HPHR x HEALTH RIGHTERS

HPHR x Health Righters
is an online collaboration of the
Harvard Public Health Review
and
Health Righters.

Health righters

Health Righters is a team of 60+ writers, editors, creatives, and web designers from all across the world, spanning over 12 universities and a wide variety of undergraduate disciplines. 16 of our contributors participated in this collaboration with HPHR. We aim to explore the interplay between healthcare and human rights, with our current pieces spanning topics including the Black Lives Matter movement, clinical trials, special needs education, incarceration, and the pandemic. By highlighting personal stories, consolidating existing research, and reaching out for expert opinions, our work aims to shed light on populations being denied basic human rights. Together, we strive to think deeply about global issues at the intersection of healthcare and human rights, and we hope that through our pieces, we can inspire our readers to do the same.
