Rights Respecting Schools Articles of the Week;

Article 24 (health and health services): Every child has the right to the best possible health. Governments must
provide good quality health care, clean water, nutritious food, and a clean environment and education on health
and well-being so that children can stay healthy. Richer countries must help poorer countries achieve this.

Article 27 (adequate standard of living): Every child has the right to a standard of living that is good enough
to meet their physical and social needs and support their development. Governments must help families who
cannot afford to provide this.
