The UN High-Level Meeting on Universal Health Coverage (UN HLM UHC). The declarations of international leaders about the current situation on the status of UN UHC, and the urgency to accelerate the implementation of public policies to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals for 2030 (SDG 2030) and in particular the SDG 3 and target 3.8
Former declarations of international intergovernmental organizations that failed to achieve their Goals.
Information about member states and how to find the representative from each state member.
And the final message: The United Nations' renewed commitment to achieving universal mental and physical health access and coverage relies on the support and influence of various intergovernmental entities, health professionals, civil society organizations (CSOs), and patient advocacy groups such as Rare Disease International, AMAVIRARAS and FEBRARARAS.
This collective commitment represents a fresh and significant opportunity, one that demands our utmost dedication and collaboration to bring about this paramount goal for each and everyone.

• On Monday (Sept 18, 2023), WHO and the World Bank
launched our report card on universal health coverage.
• The findings are alarming. 4.5 billion people – more than
half of the world’s population – are not fully covered by
essential health services.
• And 2 billion people face financial hardship or are
impoverished due to out-of-pocket health spending.
• That puts families in the impossible situation of choosing
between paying for health care, putting food on the table,
or sending their kids to school.
• These gaps put lives at risk, and prevent us from
addressing many of the most pressing challenges in global
health.
• Every day, almost 800 women die from preventable
complications of pregnancy and childbirth.
• Every day, 14,000 children under five die, mostly from
preventable and treatable causes.
• And every day, more than 100,000 people die
prematurely from noncommunicable diseases.
• This is not a technical problem, it’s a political problem.

• Na segunda-feira (18 de setembro de 2023), a OMS e o Banco
Mundial lançaram nosso boletim sobre cobertura universal de
saúde.
• As descobertas são alarmantes. 4,5 mil milhões de pessoas –
mais de metade da população mundial – não estão totalmente
cobertas por serviços de saúde essenciais.
• E 2 mil milhões de pessoas enfrentam dificuldades financeiras
ou estão empobrecidas devido a despesas de saúde do próprio
bolso.
• Isso coloca as famílias na situação impossível de escolher entre
pagar pelos cuidados de saúde, colocar comida na mesa ou mandar
os filhos para a escola.
• Estas lacunas colocam vidas em risco e impedem-nos de
enfrentar muitos dos desafios mais prementes da saúde global.
• Todos os dias, quase 800 mulheres morrem devido a
complicações evitáveis da gravidez e do parto.
• Todos os dias, 14 mil crianças com menos de cinco anos morrem,
a maioria por causas evitáveis e tratáveis.
• E todos os dias, mais de 100 mil pessoas morrem
prematuramente de doenças não transmissíveis.
• Este não é um problema técnico, é um problema político.

fome em 2022, com uma média de 735 milhões,

between 691 and 783 million people faced hunger in
2022, with a mid-range of 735 million, representing an increase
of 122 million people compared to 2019. It also adds up to a
grim warning, potentially jeopardizing the Sustainable
Development Goal of ending hunger.
43. The United Nations' renewed commitment to achieving universal
mental and physical health access and coverage relies on the
support and influence of various intergovernmental entities, health
professionals, civil society organizations (CSOs), and patient
advocacy groups such as Rare Disease International, AMAVIRARAS
