10 A HUMAN RIGHTS APPROACH TO INFECTIOUS DISEASES PREVENTION IN PRISON Several human rights conventions enshrine prisoners rights, including their right to the highest attainable standard of health (UDHR, ICCPR, ICESCR, CAT, ECHR, etc.) Standards relating to prisoners health have been set by human rights and public health bodies International, regional and national human rights monitoring mechanisms have been put in place to ensure compliance with those conventions and standards, and to ultimately protect prisoners rights (SPT, CPT, NPMs ). Generally grounded in the prevention of torture and ill treatment, their mandates do encompass health issues and rights. The European Court of Human Rights also has growing body of case law of prisoners rights, including health rights.
11 IMPROVING PRISON CONDITIONS BY STRENGTHENING INFECTIOUS DISEASE MONITORING A HRI PROJECT Objective: reduce ill-treatment of persons in detention and improve prison conditions through enhanced and standardised monitoring and inspection mechanisms on infectious diseases (TB, HIV and HCV). Develop a user-friendly tool to generate better informed, more consistent, and sustained human rights monitoring of infectious diseases in prisons by national, regional and international human rights monitoring mechanisms. Working at European level with specific mapping and advocacy work in Greece, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Portugal, Poland, Spain This project is co-funded by the European Union under the Criminal Justice Programme
