                 Franqois-Xavier Bagnoud Center
                 for Health and Human Rights

The Francois-Xavier Bagnoud Center for Health and Human Rights was
founded at the Harvard School of Public Health in January 1993. The Center
considers that the promotion and protection of health and the promotion
and protection of human rights are inextricably linked. The Center is
dedicated to exploring the conceptual dimensions and practical
applications of this critical relationship. Through its concentrated focus
on the intersection of health and human rights, the Center also seeks to
help revitalize the field of public health and broaden human rights thinking
and practice.


                Harvard School of Public Health

The Harvard School of Public Health includes more than 200 faculty
members working in various disciplines of public health. The overriding
mission of the School-to advance the public's health through learning
and discovery-comprises four objectives: to educate scientists,
professionals, and leaders of public health; to foster new discoveries and
develop better technologies for improved health of individuals and
populations; to inform and influence debate on key public health issues;
and to strengthen capacities and services that meet health needs in the
community.


              Association Franqois-Xavier Bagnoud

The Association Fran~ois-Xavier Bagnoud currently supports worldwide
programs in humanitarian assistance, aerospace research for the benefit
of people, and community life in the Swiss canton of Valais. Humanitarian
assistance focuses on children's rights-especially the right to medical
care-of children who are orphaned, abandoned or sick, many of whom
have AIDS or are HIV-infected. Projects are located in Thailand, India,
Switzerland, Kenya, Uganda, Uruguay, Columbia, and the United States.
The Association Francois-Xavier Bagnoud bears the name of a young Swiss
helicopter rescue pilot who died in a helicopter accident while flying over
the desert in Mali in 1986.
