Dr Githinji Gitahi, group CEO, Amref Health Africa unpacks Universal Health Coverage. He explains the rights-based approach; everyone regardless of who they are and where they live should be able to access promotive health information - to ensure that they understand how to keep themselves healthy - and when someone gets ill, they should be able to access the services they need, nearest to where you live and work, without financial difficulty. Amref's approach partners communities to understand their unique challenges in accessing health. Working with governments, Amref understands these nuances at the community-level and works with governments to help inform health and related policies.
