Answer 1

The United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) has the purpose of addressing human rights violations. It does not deal with health care issues.

If you're interest in the UNHRC and human rights, go here:

The arm of the United Nations that deals with International health is:

1. World Health Organization (WHO)

Other relevant UN organizations:

1. World Food Programme (WFP)

2. High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR)

A couple partnerships with the WHO you may find of interest:

1. International AIDS Vaccine Initiative
