The programme,
titled
Health for All, takes place on World Health Day and is organised by the Cape Cultural Collective in partnership with the Foundation for Human Rights, the People’s Health Movement South Africa and The Claremont Main Road Mosque.
The programme can be watched on Zoom or on the Cape Cultural Collective’s Facebook page.
It takes place at a time when the Covid-19 pandemic has focused our attention on health and its interconnectedness with the environment, the arts, health and many other social categorisations. We are living in a world of growing inequality, denying many of the world’s citizens access to quality health care.
