Injustice has a cure
How We Advocate
We call on those in power, from local legislators to world leaders, to advance health care as a human right. Our advocacy team meets with local and national government leaders to share lessons, stories, and results from PIH's work around the world. We advocate for legislation that eliminates barriers to care and increases resources to advance global health equity.

Our Strategy
Injustice in health has many causes, including social, political, and economic forces. For each of the focus areas below, we work to build political power and achieve specific policy goals. We build power through community organizing, driven by our grassroots network, PIH Engage, and through intersectional coalition building. This power is critical to getting decision-makers to take action to advance health equity, including through introducing, advancing, and enacting specific legislation.
Advancing the Right to Health Globally
Paul Farmer Memorial Resolution
A Congressional coalition is leading the most bold and ambitious global health legislation ever introduced in Congress: a 21st century global health strategy based on the life's work of Dr. Paul Farmer. The resolution enshrines his vision for health equity to serve as a north star for global health politics for years to come.
Global Health Workforce
The Health Workforce Campaign leads coalition efforts to increase U.S. government funding for rural and tribal clinical training and staffing and realize new funding for global clinical leadership development and human resources for health programming.
Global Economic Justice Reform
Economic justice reform is key to realizing the right to health. We work to advance proposals for: debt cancellation for countries that need it, democratization of international financial institutions, and international tax cooperation to reduce resource theft from the Global South.
Global Public Goods for Health
During the COVID-19 pandemic, PIH has advocated for equitable access to COVID-19 vaccines, treatments, and diagnostics. We advocate for U.S. government investment in the discovery and development of urgently needed new health technologies, particularly for neglected diseases of poverty, and ensuring their availability as global public goods.
