Success of #UHC depends on the ability to provide quality services to all people irrespective of their social and economic backgrounds #HealthForAll #UNGA2019 #UHCInAfrica

For Africa to achieve #UHC, governments need to increase funding and domestic resources for healthcare to a recommended target of at least 5% of GDP #HealthForAll #UNGA2019 #UHCInAfrica

Building #UHC in Africa starts with communities who need to be empowered to raise their voices & claim their right to health – to access quality health care services when & where needed without suffering financial hardship #HealthForAll #UNGA2019 #UHCInAfrica

The UN High-Level Meeting will mobilise high-level political leadership to drive meaningful country action towards achieving UHC by 2030 #HealthForAll #UNGA2019 #UHCInAfrica

Adopting Political Declaration on #UHC is a key step towards reaffirming and advancing target 3.8 of SDGs in which all countries committed to achieve UHC by 2030 #HealthForAll #UNGA2019 #UHCInAfrica
