3: For More Equitable Health Systems, Involve Civil Society

Pathways to Accelerate Health Equity by Health Systems Strengthening Accelerator

Episode notes

Understanding people’s needs is key to making health systems more equitable. To that end, it’s important to include civil society organizations and vulnerable populations in the design of new strategies.

In the final episode of Pathways to Accelerate Health Equity, Nathan talks with medical professionals in Togo and Benin about ways they engaged with civil society organizations (CSOs) to improve progress toward universal health coverage. We also hear about a tool used to support advocacy for community health budgets in Guinea.
