The right to health was laid out in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, reaffirmed in the Alma Ata declaration, and remains embedded in contemporary WHO priorities. There is no credible path to achieving it that can run through perpetual conflict. Responding to the health consequences of war is necessary, but it cannot substitute for the conditions required to build, protect, and sustain health systems. Ambitions for equity, resilience, preparedness, and universal access cannot be realised amid chronic insecurity.
Peace is not adjacent to health—it is foundational.
The Lancet editorial (2026) (pdf Volume 407, Issue 10523, 1)
