In her keynote lecture Toebes talked about the role of human rights standards in the distribution of health law. Gispen presented her work on access to pain control and palliative care in Europe sharing findings of her previous qualitative study in Latvia; and Zhang introduced China’s new health care reform model - the ‘Sanming Model’- in improving access to health care from a human rights perspective.
The conference provided an excellent platform for discussing health law in Europe, and for building new partnerships in the field.
