This event will commemorate the two-year anniversary of the 2019 High-level Meeting on UHC, share lessons learned and pave the way for the 2023 HLM on UHC, including in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. COVID-19 has provided an impetus to prioritize prevention and public health measures for UHC at all levels and to ensure robust and collaborative global health architecture.
