Book excerpt: With contributions from activists and scholars across Africa, this study focusses on understanding the legal framework in Africa for the recognition of the right to health, the challenges people encounter in such litigation and prospects for litigating future health rights cases. Diverse case studies also demonstrate that even in jurisdictions where the right to health has not been explicitly guaranteed, attempts have been made to litigate on this right. The book also takes a comparative approach to litigating the right to health before regional human rights bodies.
