Abstract (English): |
The Middle East region has a long history of resistance, activism, and advocacy movements in health, most recently as part of the 2011 region‐wide Arab Spring. Despite this storied history, however, movements of resistance, activism, and advocacy in health in the region are rarely unpacked, examined, or documented. This historical and contextual analysis aims to examine the long‐standing confiscated health rights and subsequent experiences of resistance, activism, and advocacy in health in populations in Palestine, Lebanon, Egypt, and Iraq. Promoting a health equity and health rights‐based approach is key to achieving Universal Health Coverage and health‐related Sustainable Development Goals, particularly in contexts that experience fragile socioeconomic and humanitarian conditions and political instability such as many countries in the Middle East. Marginalized populations, including Palestinians living under Israeli occupation, Lebanese Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender+ (LGBT) communities, Egyptian women and girls affected by Female Genital Mutilation, and Iraqi refugees and Internally Displaced Persons, have been severely impacted by decades of oppression, conflict, and displacement. These populations have faced various forms of discrimination, neglect, and violence that have hindered their access to quality healthcare and basic health rights. Rather than relying on government efforts, local and international movements to advocate for and protect the health rights of these populations are key. Innovative approaches, strategic dialogue and collective actions are prerequisites for promoting resistance, activism, and advocacy in health in all country's systems structure. This analysis highlights the important of this social public health issue in the most turbulent region and provides evidence to guide all countries to realize equitable human rights for health for all populations. Key Points: The health rights of marginalized populations in the Middle East, including Palestinians living under occupation, LGBT+ communities, women and girls affected by Female genital mutilation, and Iraqi refugees and IDPs, have been severely impacted by decades of oppression, conflict, and displacement.Despite these challenges, there have been efforts by local and international organizations, activists, and movements to advocate for and protect the health rights of these populations.Resistance, activism, and advocacy movements should be recognized as local and regional priorities, contributing to realizing health equity and integrating the health rights‐based approach into the social and health systems.Rethinking and advancing the movement of resistance, activism, and advocacy in health is a necessary step in improving health for marginalized populations, and strategic dialogue between all stakeholders is the first step forward.

Resumen: La región de Medio Oriente tiene una larga historia de movimientos de resistencia, activismo y defensa de la salud, más recientemente como parte de la Primavera Árabe de 2011 en toda la región. Sin embargo, a pesar de esta historia histórica, los movimientos de resistencia, activismo y promoción de la salud en la región rara vez se analizan, analizan o documentan. Este análisis histórico y contextual tiene como objetivo examinar los derechos de salud confiscados desde hace mucho tiempo y las experiencias posteriores de resistencia, activismo y defensa de la salud en poblaciones de Palestina, Líbano, Egipto e Irak. Promover un enfoque basado en la equidad sanitaria y los derechos sanitarios es clave para lograr la Cobertura Universal de Salud (CSU) y los Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible relacionados con la salud, particularmente en contextos que experimentan condiciones socioeconómicas y humanitarias frágiles e inestabilidad política, como muchos países de Medio Oriente. Las poblaciones marginadas, incluidas las palestinas que viven bajo la ocupación israelí, las comunidades libanesas de lesbianas, gays, bisexuales y transgénero+ (LGBT), las mujeres y niñas egipcias afectadas por la mutilación genital femenina (MGF) y los refugiados iraquíes y las personas desplazadas internamente (PDI), han sido gravemente afectado por décadas de opresión, conflicto y desplazamiento. Estas poblaciones se han enfrentado a diversas formas de discriminación, abandono y violencia que han obstaculizado su acceso a una atención sanitaria de calidad y a sus derechos básicos en materia de salud. En lugar de depender de los esfuerzos gubernamentales, son clave los movimientos locales e internacionales para defender y proteger los derechos a la salud de estas poblaciones. Los enfoques innovadores, el diálogo estratégico y las acciones colectivas son requisitos previos para promover la resistencia, el activismo y la promoción de la salud en la estructura de todos los sistemas del país. Este análisis destaca la importancia de este problema social de salud pública en la región más turbulenta y proporciona evidencia para guiar a todos los países a hacer realidad los derechos humanos equitativos a la salud para todas las poblaciones.

摘要: 中东地区在健康领域有着悠久的抵抗、行动主义和倡导运动历史,最近一次发生在2011年阿拉伯之春运动。然而,尽管有这段著名历史,该地区健康领域中的抵抗、行动主义和倡导却很少被揭露、分析或记录。本文采用历史和情境分析,旨在研究巴勒斯坦、黎巴嫩、埃及和伊拉克人民长期被没收的健康权以及随后在健康领域的抵抗、行动主义和倡导经历。促进健康公平和基于健康权利的方法是实现全民健康覆盖(UHC)和与健康相关的可持续发展目标的关键,特别是在社会经济和人道主义条件脆弱以及政治不稳定的情境下,例如许多中东国家。边缘化人群,包括生活在以色列占领区的巴勒斯坦人、黎巴嫩女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋和跨性别者+(LGBT)社区、受女性生殖器残割(FGM)影响的埃及妇女和女童、以及伊拉克难民和国内流离失所者(IDP),他们都遭受数十年的压迫、冲突和流离失所的严重影响。这些人群面临各种形式的歧视、忽视和暴力,这阻碍了他们获得优质医疗保健和基本健康权利。关键不是依靠政府的努力,而是靠那些倡导和保护这些人群的健康权利的地方运动和国际运动。创新方法、战略对话和集体行动是"在所有国家的系统结构中促进健康领域的抵抗、行动主义和倡导"的先决条件。本分析强调了这一社会公共卫生问题在最动荡地区的重要性,并为指导所有国家实现所有人口健康的公平人权一事提供了证据。 [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
