Rights into Reality: Human rights and community-led health conference
More than 120 people came together in Glasgow for a day of discussions and workshops around human rights and community-led health. Everyone here at CHEX was absolutely delighted to have so many people joining us to explore how we can use human rights-based approaches in our work - and hear from incredible examples of practice from across Scotland and the UK.
CHEX is short for Community Health Exchange. We promote and support community-led health where people identify the issues that are important to them and organise to take collective action to address these issues and improve their health.
