About us
UHC2030’s vision is a world where all people have access to the full range of quality health services they need, when and where they need them, without financial hardship.
Our platform
UHC2030 is a global, multi-stakeholder platform for accelerating sustainable progress towards UHC. We are hosted by the World Health Organization (WHO), in collaboration with the World Bank and the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). Signatories of the Global Compact, our members are the leading voices of the UHC movement, spanning countries, civil society, the private sector, foundations, UN agencies and other international organizations that are working collectively to build equitable, resilient health systems that leave no one behind and that provide the foundation for achieving health security.
Our pathways for change
To achieve our vision, we're focusing on three pathways for change: advocacy (influencing decisions by political, economic and social institutions to advance UHC), accountability (tracking the implementation of commitments to foster action, decisions, policies and programmes for UHC) and alignment (convening stakeholders to exchange information and to elevate the importance of alignment with one national plan and of working within national structures to strengthen health systems). We foster the engagement of a wide range of stakeholders to build a collective voice for the UHC Movement.
Our governance
UHC2030 is governed by the UHC2030 Steering Committee and the Secretariat. It also supports the UHC Movement Political Panel.
Steering Committee
The UHC2030 Steering Committee is responsible for setting our overall strategic directions and oversight. Its constituency-based structure enables broad representation and meaningful participation.
UHC2030 Secretariat
Hosted by the WHO, in collaboration with the World Bank and the OECD, the Secretariat ensures UHC2030 remains relevant and results-focused and keeps members engaged and up to date.
UHC Movement Political Panel
The UHC Movement Political Panel provides guidance to the UHC2030 Steering Committee to strengthen political support for universal health coverage.
Our history
UHC2030 stemmed from IHP+, the International Health Partnership established in 2007, which aimed to improve effective development cooperation in health to help meet the Millennium Development Goals. In 2016, IHP+ transformed into UHC2030 to respond to the health-related Sustainable Development Goals and focus on health systems strengthening to achieve universal health coverage.
