Source:
Open Society Foundations

In many countries, health continues to be viewed as "sickness and medicines" rather than the result of social determinants. This publication, a review of the background to the debilitating Roma health situation, shows opportunities for systemic intervention, using human rights instruments and other policy tools. The publication's author is Karen Plafker, deputy director of OSI's Public Health Program.
