A Campaign for the Right to Health

People's Health Movement, South Africa, invites you to participate in a global campaign for the right to health.

The attached proposal explains the background, motivation, goals and objectives of the campaign and proposes a set of activities. The organizations involved in various stages of drafting and reviewing it to date included SAMWU, NEHAWU, the Domestic Workers' Union, the Media Training Centre, the SA Council of Churches, Treatment Action Campaign, the Black Sash, the Children’s Resource Centre and the People's Health Movement [SA].

In view of the importance of this issue we are asking your organisation not only to support and endorse the campaign but to be actively involved and committed in the planning and activities. Please can you let us know whether your organisation is willing to endorse and add it’s name to the attached proposal by the 20th October 2006

We invite you to attend or send dedicated delegates to the first planning meeting for the campaign:

When: 12 October 2006 at 4 pm

Where: SAMWU, Trade Union House, 8 Beverley St, Athlone

Yours in the struggle for health
