Africa: Multilateral Development Banks and WHO Launch New Investment Platform to Strengthen Primary Health Care Services

The Platform, launched during the Summit for a New Global Financing Pact being held in Paris, will make an initial Ꞓ1.5 billion available to LICs and LMICs in concessional loans and grants to expand the reach and scope of their PHC services, especially for the most vulnerable and underserved populations and communities.

Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, WHO Director-General, said a PHC approach offers the most effective means to improve health and well-being, including through the delivery of essential health services to all people. It is a driver of universal health coverage, one of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals . World leaders committed in 2015 to achieve access to essential health-care services and affordable essential medicines and vaccines for all people by 2030.

"COVID-19 demonstrated the great human and economic suffering that can occur when we fail to invest in essential health services," said Dr Hoyer."Cooperation among multilateral development banks through the new Health Impact Investment Platform will ensure countries in need are better able to build resilient primary health care services that can withstand the shocks of future health crises, and safeguard communities and economies for the future.
