Turning the Tables: Patient Perspectives on UHC

Let’s face it: Member States can develop all the political declarations they want, but without incorporating feedback from patients and caregivers into these documents, Universal Health Coverage (UHC) will not be achieved. These individuals provide critical perspectives on how they and their communities access and receive health services. Moreover, their experiences will help to build upon and ultimately ensure a UHC agenda that truly provides equal access to quality services.
Join us for a two-part fireside chat where patient advocates drive discussions with Member state missions, private sector representatives, and NGO implementers on how patient perspectives can be incorporated into both the development and objectives of global health programs as well as the strategies of national and global health policies. You can read more about our speakers here.
