Community Working Group on Health (CWGH)

Zimbabwe is aiming to achieve Universal Health Coverage through the Primary Health Care Approach which will assist towards the attainment of the SDGs. The UHC day commemoration will provide a platform to sensitize communities on Universal Health Coverage, advocate for increased health financing, promote primary health care and celebrate gains made towards Universal Health Coverage across the world that can be adopted and replicated in Zimbabwe. The commemoration will bring together CSOs, parliamentarians, the media and community health cadres such as village health workers, home based care workers and peer educators. It will be held in Bulawayo the second largest city in Zimbabwe. The UHC Day Commemorations will utilize a mixture of participatory and edutainment approaches including drama and dance groups to incorporate key presentations from public health experts and discussions from community cadres and CSOs.
