Activities will culminate in a virtual rally on UHC Day, when advocates around the world will amplify this year’s call to action: Leave No One’s Health Behind: Invest in Health Systems for All.
Given the unique circumstances of this year, the goal is to make it as easy and safe as possible for individuals and organizations around the world to show their support.
A message from leaders around the world on UHC Day
We asked health and development leaders from civil society, national governments, and multilateral organizations around the world what “Health for All” means to them. Their responses illustrate why it is critical to achieve universal health coverage and why we must invest in health systems that leave no one behind.
