Advocacy for Universal Health Coverage

About this course

This course on universal health coverage advocacy offers bitesize online modules to learn about UHC2030 Advocacy Guide.

The UHC2030 Advocacy Guide provides an overview of what universal health coverage is, why it matters and how you can mobilize bottom-up change at the grassroots and community level to influence national level policies and make meaningful health system reforms, ensuring that no one is left behind.

The guide aims to share specific tools to help you call on policy and decision makers to focus on improving any and all of the three pillars of Healthy systems for universal health coverage – a joint vision for healthy lives: service delivery, health financing and governance. The intersection of these three pillars aims to create an environment in which UHC is a measurable and achievable goal – something we can all get behind.
