Key Coalition Messages:

Partner across sectors and stakeholders to achieve unified goals:

The Coalition stands for mobilizing multisectoral and multistakeholder action to amplify global awareness, accountability, investments, efficient health spending, strengthened health systems, and exchange of best practices and lessons learnt.

The global, collaboration, which leverages the strengths of diverse stakeholders – including local and national governments, the private sector, civil society, the United Nations system and more – is necessary to support countries in achieving Health for All.

Prioritize the most vulnerable:

The Coalition stands for a holistic, people-centred approach that respects the voices of those living with or at-risk for various diseases, and prioritizes the needs of population groups left furthest behind, in line with the principles of human rights and gender equity.

Although the pandemic has affected everyone, COVID-19 has forced poor and vulnerable populations into even more precarious positions. Much more needs to be done to serve and protect these groups in emergencies.

Reestablish trust between decision-makers and communities:

The Coalition promotes social participation in policymaking to ensure people-centred policies and action.

COVID-19 has magnified what’s at stake when people lose trust in their leaders and public systems to protect their health, ensure financial security and future wellbeing. Political leaders must listen and respond to the needs of communities they serve and create a conducive environment and platforms for civil society participation in decision-making with a direct impact on health.
