Universal Health Coverage Day 2025
Universal Health Coverage Day 2025 shines a spotlight on the devastating human impact of unaffordable health costs. Health for all is a prerequisite for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. On UHC Day, WHO calls for urgent action to implement financial protection measures and eliminate out-of-pocket health costs for those most in need–including people with low incomes or chronic conditions.
Key findings from the Tracking Universal Health Coverage: 2025 Global Monitoring Report will be presented in a webinar on Monday, 8 December. Further information and registration: here [https://www.who.int/news-room/events/detail/2025/12/08/default-calendar/tracking-universal-health-coverage-2025-global-monitoring-report].
