Global Health Advocacy Project (GhAP)

GhAP has made submissions to two DfID consultations...

Your can download our submissions from the box on the right.

  • In August 2008, we released a report on charging vulnerable migrants for NHS primary care, which received coverage in the national press.
  • Since September 2007, we have been focussing our campaigning on the entitlement of certain vulnerable migrant groups to NHS services. Details of this campaign can be found here.
  • In November 2006, we were protesting about the lack of democracy in the election of the new Director General of the World Health Organisation.
  • We signed a petition about HIV and employment rights in Botswana, and would encourage you to do the same.
  • We recently had an article published in the JRSM about Reed Elseviers involvement in the arms trade. This campaign has now been wrapped up as Reed Elsevier have abandonned their arms fairs.
  • We had a Campaigns Day on April 28th in Leeds, you can download powerpoints and read related articles here

A more extensive history of the GhAP will be published soon.
