Gloria Iribaziga reports from the closing ceremony at the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) where the draft resolution "Access to Health as a Basic Right: The Role of Parliaments in Addressing Key Challenges to Securing the Health of Women and Children" has been unanimously passed.
And the WRA wins praise from IPU Secretary General Anders Johnsson for our engagement of Parliamentarians at the IPU in support of this resolution.

Chandima Weerakkody MP Sri Lanka, the Hon.
