To celebrate World Health Day 2024, the World Health Organization Southeast Asia Regional Office is organizing an art competition themed '.my health, my rights. ”
We invite people of all ages to share through their work how they view health as a human right and what it means to them personally.
What does the right to health mean to you? Availability / Accessibility / Acceptability / Quality? What does a human rights-based approach to health look like?’ Equality/non-discrimination. What about participation and accountability?
Pick up your pen, your pencil, your digital tools and write, regardless of your race, color, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth, or other status. Shining a spotlight on what rights everyone has. Towards the highest attainable standard of health.
