PERSPECTIVES

Following the accident that has cost Kamal el Batal his life, the foundation, through its legal action to determine the responsibilities of the physicians and hospitals involved, aims at creating a precedent, which, hopefully, will compel all concerned parties to improve and optimize procedures, so that persons admitted at an emergency room find help and comfort, rather than become victims with tragic consequences. This is the right of the patients and the duty of health care providers.

We know that Kamal would have done it for others. We are doing it for him, faithful to his engagement as a great militant and an uncompromising activist for the promotion of Human Rights
