全球卫生不平等每年造成近2000万人死亡，其中大部分是世界上的穷人。然而，国际法目前在减少这些死亡背后的巨大不平等方面做得很少。这一条首次系统地阐述了以健康权为基础的拟议新的全球卫生条约--《全球卫生框架公约》的目标和理由、规范基础和可能的构建。FCGH已经得到联合国秘书长的认可，它将重新设想全球卫生治理，提出一个新的、后千年发展目标的愿景。一个由民间社会和学者组成的全球联盟已经形成了关于国家和全球卫生责任的联合行动和学习倡议(JALI)，以推进FCGH。
Global health inequities cause nearly 20 million deaths annually, mostly among the world's poor. Yet international law currently does little to reduce the massive inequalities that underlie these deaths. This Article offers the first systematic account of the goals and justifications, normative foundations, and potential construction of a proposed new global health treaty, a Framework Convention on Global Health (FCGH), grounded in the human right to health. Already endorsed by the United Nations Secretary-General, the FCGH would reimagine global governance for health, offering a new, post-Millennium Development Goals vision. A global coalition of civil society and academics has formed the Joint Action and Learning Initiative on National and Global Responsibilities for Health (JALI) to advance the FCGH.
