About
This area of work develops technical analyses of international and comparative domestic law to inform litigation and law and policy reform processes at the national, regional, and global levels. Using the lens of commercial determinants of health, we focus on modifiable risk factors, including tobacco, alcohol, and unhealthy diets, prioritizing accountability and the regulation of corporate actors. The Health and Human Rights Initiative advances work on noncommunicable diseases prevention, tobacco control, and obesity prevention through research, capacity building, and strategic use of the law.
