 Re-Imagine global health and PHC in a post COVID19 world – A virtual post 77th UNGA conversation

October 25, 2022

RSVP

The 77th edition of the United Nations General Assembly is very apt in its theme “A watershed moment: transformative solutions to interlocking challenges.” For the first time following the COVID19 pandemic, world leaders and stakeholders convened in New York to take stock of the impact of the pandemic and various other global ‘tsunamis’ including the war in Ukraine, crisis in food security and energy supplies, in addition to the ballooning effect of climate change on health and its related social and economic determinants. In its goal keepers report, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation loudly rang an early alert bell in the midst of cautious optimism, we shall not achieve the SDGs in 2030 except…. The myriad of these yet to be identified exceptions will ‘leave no nation or stakeholder behind.’

Chestrad Global in collaboration with AMREF Health Africa, Association for Reproductive Health, and Rights (ARHR), Ghana as well as other partners seek your participation and support to host a virtual post 77th UNGA conversation that will examine decisions of the UNGA meetings amid several global tsunamis including COVID19 responses that will impact on health, wellbeing, and human capital development in Africa.

Our goal is to discuss these in light of the UNGA decisions and ongoing processes in Africa including the impact of climate change and the Russian-Ukraine crisis on food security, poverty and PHC transformation in Africa. Our purpose is to build shared stakeholder positions that can inform Africa’s preparations and engagement in the high-level meetings to be hosted by the UN in 2023 including contributions as may be relevant to deliberations of the 2023 World Health Assembly amongst others.

This event is hosted by Chestrad Global in collaboration with AMREF Health Africa, Alliance for Reproductive Health Rights (ARHR) Ghana, Pathfinder International, PHC Strategy Group and VillageReach.
