As the deadline for meeting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) approaches, enhancing primary health care is an important vehicle to achieve SDG target 3.8 on universal health coverage. However, countries are struggling to finance the health of their population amid dwindling national budgets and shifts in demographics and disease burdens. Meanwhile, donor priorities are changing, and countries are looking for ways to mobilize more of their own resources.
This event brings together health and financing experts to examine these challenges and share insights on which priorities to fund to maximize impact and ensure everyone has access to the health care they need.
