We invite your comments on the final draft resolution on human rights
and access to medicines in Africa, which will be presented for
consideration to the NGO Forum meeting in Abuja (Nigeria) November 8,
2008, on the occasion of the 44th Ordinary Session of the African
Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights (African Commission). The
resolution requests the African Commission to adopt a resolution
recognizing the human right to access to needed medicines and clarifying
the duties imposed by the right.

The resolution is a product of the Access to Medicines and Human Rights
Initiative, a collaboration of the University of Pretoria Centre for
Human Rights and American University Washington College of Law Program
on Information Justice and Intellectual Property and International Human
Rights Legal Clinic, supported by the Open Society Institute. More
information on the Initiative is available at
http://www.wcl.american.edu/pijip/go/humanrights

This draft reflects the many comments we received on the initial draft
circulated earlier. Suggestions posted to the comments section of the
blog will be considered if made before November 8, 2008.
