The main value of both the national economy and the global community is the human being. Therefore, the strategy of sustainable development is focused on the primary factors that ensure human development and the realization of man's divine inalienable right to a full life. The central link in the realization of this right is the organization of the system of medical care, primarily for mothers and children. Perinatal care determines the level of socio-economic development of the country in the global environment and is determined by the perspective of the modern international economy in terms of acceptability of generations, determines the level of competitiveness of national production and its final consumption. The conducted research characterized the goals and objectives of the WHO to implement the strategy of sustainable development, namely that every woman, every child, and adolescent anywhere in the world could realize the right to health. This goal national governments must achieve by the end of 2050. Therefore, from the perspective of this concept, an assessment of perinatal health care was carried out.

Objective to discuss the right to health, incorporation into the legal instruments and the deployment in practice in the National Health System in Mozambique. Method this is a documentary analysis of a qualitative nature, which after thorough and interpretative reading of the legal instruments and articles that deal with the right to health, access and universal coverage, resulted in the construction of three empirical categories: instruments of humans rights and their interrelationship with the development of the right to health; the national health system in Mozambique; gaps between theory and practice in the consolidation of the right to health in the country. Results Mozambique ratified several international and regional legal instruments (of Africa) that deal with the right to health and which are ensured in its Constitution. However, their incorporation into the National Health Service have been limited because it can not provide access and universal coverage to health services in an equitable manner throughout its territorial extension and in the different levels of care. Conclusions the implementation of the right to health is complex and will require mobilization of the state and political financial, educational, technological, housing, sanitation and management actions, as well as ensuring access to health, and universal coverage.

LABURPENA: Apirilaren 20ko 16/2012 Lege Dekretuaren bidez, osasun-erreforma delakoa onartu zen Espainian. Kritika ugari eta autonomia-erkidegoen konstituzio-errekurtso bat baino gehiago eragin zituen, lehena 2016ko uztailean ebatzia. Erreforma hori jorratzen da lan honetan, bi ikuspuntutatik. Lehenik, ea nor den eskubidearen titularra, titulu zilegitasun emaile baita, osasun publikorako sarbide-ahalmena ematen duena. Eta zer gertatzen den? Aseguratua behar dela izan osasun-sistema publikoan sarbidea izateko, eta, hortaz, giza talde oso bat osasunsistema nazionaletik erauzita geratzen dela, Espainian duten administrazio-egoera dela-eta. Eta, bigarrenik, ea osasuna babesteko ereduan zer-nolako ondorioak ekarri dituen erreformak, unibertsaltasuna ez baita, jada, osasun-eskubidera iristeko bidean argi egiten duen printzipio gidaria. RESUMEN: A través del Real Decreto-Ley 16/2012, de 20 de abril, se aprueba en España la llamada reforma sanitaria objeto de múltiples críticas y «caldo de cultivo» de varios recursos de inconstitucionalidad interpuestos por diversas Comunidades Autónomas, el primero de los cuales se resolvió en julio de 2016. Una reforma que se aborda en este trabajo desde una doble perspectiva. En primer lugar, la de la titularidad del derecho en tanto título legitimador que permite el acceso a la Sanidad Pública. En este sentido, el hecho de que el acceso al sistema público sanitario se vincule a la condición de asegurado conlleva la expulsión del Sistema Nacional de Salud de todo un colectivo de personas atendiendo al criterio de su situación administrativa en España. Y en segundo lugar, desde la óptica de las implicaciones de la reforma respecto al modelo de protección de la salud provocando la ruptura de la universalidad como principio rector que informa el acceso al ejercicio del derecho a la salud. ABSTRACT: By means of the Royal Decree-Law 16/2012 from April 20th, Spain has adopted the so called health reform which has been subject of multiple critics and the «breeding ground» for several appeals of unconstitutionality filed by different Autonomous communities, the first of them was settled in July 2016. A reform that this work studies from a twofold perspective. Firstly, from the point of view of the holder of the right as legitimating title to access to the health public system. In this respect, the fact that access to the health public system is linked to the condition of insured entails the expulsion from the National Health system of a whole entire group of people taking into account their administrative situation in Spain. And secondly, from the perspective of the implications of the reform regarding the model of the health protection which provokes the rupture of universality as a guiding principle that informs the access to the exercise of the right to health.

Integrating the right to health is pivotal in progressing health and development in the Pacific. The Sustainable Development Goal (sdg) agenda provides an opportunity for this, given the relationship between health, human rights, climate change and sustainable development. The right to health’s content can be utilised to progress country obligations in various ways: through facilitating implementation of Universal Health Coverage, supporting the development of health metrics, and assisting in equitable health policies. Cumulatively, such measures can act as process and outcome indicators of a state’s progressive realisation toward achieving the right to health. In analysing the status of the law and policy relating to the right to health, this study has established a right to health baseline for the Pacific region at sdg commencement, contributing both to monitoring and evaluation, and promoting visibility of this often overlooked region. Methods included a systematic review of the literature on the right to health, and review of six structural rights indicators in existing law and policy relating to the right to health in the 16 Pacific Island Forum countries and territories, 14 of which are recognised as small island developing states. Findings confirm the right to health’s marginalisation in the region. The ratification of United Nations (un) treaties, integration of international human rights obligations into domestic law and policy, and compliance with reporting requirements were found to be piecemeal and ad hoc at best. We argue that while legal recognition is only one step in the process of realising the right to health, the existence of right to health law and policy is a pivotal start if there is to be equitable implementation of the sdg health agenda. We also recommend Pacific nations develop one reporting framework, which can double to meet their reporting requirements under un treaty bodies and sdg 3 global health commitments.
