Physicians for Human Rights
Physicians for Human Rights mobilizes health professionals to advance
health, dignity, and justice and promotes the right to health for all.
Harnessing the specialized skills, rigor, and passion of doctors,
nurses, public health specialists, and scientists, PHR investigates
human rights abuses and works to stop them.
The goals of the PHR's National Student Program are to:
**Advance a global understanding of health and human rights between
and amongst health professional students;
**Provide educational opportunities on a range of PHR's priority issues; and
**Organize and link campus chapters to local, national and
international policy debates and campaigns.
Current campaigns for the 2007-2008 school year are the following:
**Darfur Survival Campaign
**Campaign against Torture
**Health Action AIDS
**Health and Justice for Youth
