Join the 2026 UHC Day campaign launch!
More than half of the world’s population still lacks access to essential health services, and over 2.1 billion people face financial hardship when paying for health care out of their own pockets, often at the expense of other essentials such as food, education or housing.
Closing a three-year series on financial protection, and in light of the upcoming 2027 UN High-Level Meeting on UHC, the 2026 UHC Day campaign will call on governments to act on their commitments and take immediate action to remove barriers to care, meet people’s health needs and protect them from unaffordable health costs.
Join the launch for an interactive panel discussion with global experts and advocates and be the first to see this year's theme, messaging and tools!
