These rights include the right to quality education, accessible health, provision of housing, clean environment as well as cultural rights.<\/p>\n<p>In education, HRCP supports sufficient public spending allocated in the government\u2019s budget to improve Pakistan\u2019s literacy rates. As such, we recognize the importance of student learning and teaching quality in addition to healthy quantitative indicators such as school enrolment and retention and provision of school infrastructure. HRCP stands against harmful practices such as corporal punishment and discrimination in education.<\/p>\n<p>In health, HRCP records Pakistan\u2019s various policies and initiatives towards improvement of public health afflictions such as typhoid, polio, HIV\/AIDs, tuberculosis, dengue and malaria. We also note the relationship between poverty and malnutrition that hinder citizens\u2019 rights to good health, and supports access to mental health services for all.<\/p>\n<p>In housing and other public amenities, HRCP supports citizens\u2019 rights for accessible housing, and thus stands against evictions of communities from informal housing arrangements such as katchi abadis. We also stand against illegal practices such as land grabbing and misappropriation.<\/p>\n<p>HRCP supports every citizen\u2019s right to a clean environment. This has become all the more important with the onset of climate change that is further aggravated by practices such as deforestation, water pollution, land pollution and air pollution. The need to invest in renewable energy sources becomes especially important with every passing day.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, HRCP supports every citizen\u2019s cultural rights, which include the preservation of their linguistic and literary heritage. With such a diverse population, Pakistan is a melting pot of different cultures, each which deserve the right to expression and conservation.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-6230","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
