Health is often not looked upon as a “right” by the common public primarily because the direct effect of ill health is felt at a personal level. However, in some instances—especially those pertaining to mass events such as disasters or epidemics—suddenly the public expects the government to miraculously fight and win over the situation, shrugging away any personal responsibility whatsoever. Obviously, both approaches are flawed, and while we highlight “Health for All” we must also highlight “Health by All.”It is imperative for us all—common public and health care providers alike—to understand that health is a right of every citizen and so the government and service providers must strive hard to provide it. However, in order to enjoy a right we must all own our responsibilities and thus each one of us must acknowledge our role in our own well-being and in the well-being of the society to which we belong, which is directly and intimately affected by our actions.The seminar on The Right to Health was aimed at raising some of these issues.
