Universal Health Coverage (UHC) plays a vital role in ensuring that all people in a society can access quality health services without financial hardship. To support the International UHC Day (12 December 2021) designated by the United Nations and advocated by the United Nations Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN), this webinar will explore how UHC can contribute to an equitable society and discuss the barriers and solutions from cross-country perspective with a focus to the health equity situation in Hong Kong.
