Health Law Institute

Who We Are

Health Law Institute is a Geneva based think tank that aims to:

  • Promote knowledge, understanding and awareness of health worker concerns at international, regional, national and grassroots levels based on independent, evidence-based research, analysis and recommendations.

  • Improve health workers’ legal awareness and literacy to enable them better address legal, regulatory and human rights challenges in their day to day work.

  • Provide a non-partisan and informal platform for dialogue, information sharing and cooperation among relevant stakeholders to advocate for standards, written policy and regulatory procedures on health worker concerns

Our vision

The Health Law Institute (HLI) envisions a world where “All health workers will be supported and motivated to provide care commensurate with their skills, in safe environments, under decent working conditions, and empowered to be true stakeholders in the development of sustainable healthcare systems”.
