HEALTH EQUITY, SOCIAL JUSTICE, AND HUMAN RIGHTS
Important links between health and human rights are increasingly recognised, and human rights can be viewed as one of the social determinants of health. A human rights framework provides an excellent foundation for advocacy on health inequalities, a value-based alternative to views of health as a commodity, and an opportunity to move away from public health action being based on charity. This text demystifies systems set up for the protection and promotion of human rights globally, regionally, and nationally. It explores the use and usefulness of rights-based approaches as an important part of the toolbox available to health and welfare professionals and community members working in a variety of settings to improve health and reduce health inequities.
Global in its scope, Health Equity, Social Justice, and Human Rights presents examples from all over the world to illustrate the successful use of human rights approaches in fields such as HIV/AIDS, improving access to essential drugs, reproductive health, womens health, and improving the health of marginalised and disadvantaged groups.
Understanding human rights and their interrelationships with health and health equity is essential for public health and health promotion practitioners, as well as being important for a wide range of other health and social welfare professionals. This text is valuable reading for students, practitioners, and researchers concerned with combating health inequalities and promoting social justice.

Wed like to acknowledge with enormous thanks the interest and enthusiasm of the different cohorts of students who have taken the unit in health equity and human rights while undertaking masters degrees in public health, health promotion, social work, and health and human services management at Deakin University, Australia. Their interest in the topic prompted the research necessary to explore the workings of different human rights systems at global, regional, and national levels, with the aim of offering some demystification of a highly complex and interconnected web of systems.
