| Summary: | A number the 17 Sustainable Development
Goals (SDGs) adopted by the United Nations General Assembly
in September 2015 have targets that relate to health.
However, one goal – SDG3- focuses specifically on ensuring
healthy lives and promoting well-being for all at all ages.
Target 3.8 of SDG3 – achieving universal health coverage
(UHC), including financial risk protection, access to
quality essential health-care services and access to safe,
effective, quality and affordable essential medicines and
vaccines for all – is the key to attaining the entire goal
as well as the health-related targets of other SDGs. |
