➡️ Watch the video statement that we submitted to the INB (@WHO) (min.38:42) https://t.co/GvZ8mP9DAY

Thanks to our partners @ScFrDy @TAGTeam_Tweets

[Strategic Litigation Human Rights Clinic UniTo @StrategicUnito]

Good news! The Zero draft of the #pandemic instrument(@WHO)recognizes the relevance of the Right to Science for the effective management of global health emergencies. In2022 we called on the #INB(WHO) to include a reference to this human right. They did it.@TAGTeam_Tweets @ScFrDy

[Strategic Litigation Human Rights Clinic UniTo @StrategicUnito]

Although much more work needs to be done towards the full recognition of the Right to Science as a game-changer against pandemics, the mention of this right is a meaningful achievement. For the first time, a draft instrument negotiated within the @WHO refers to the RightToScience
