Unlocking health equity: Addressing NCDs through UHC and financial protection
This session aims to mobilize UHC, PHC, and NCD advocates — including CSOs, communities, youth, and patient organizations, to build consensus on strategies and priorities for coordinated and aligned advocacy efforts in the lead-up to the 4th High-level Meeting of the UN General Assembly on the prevention and control of NCDs; and advancing progress towards SDG target 3.8 on UHC and SDG target 3.4 on NCDs within the broader framework of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
