Not without FP Forum, hosted by the International Conference on Family Planning, will have a virtual community dialogue on universal health coverage (UHC) and Covid-19 on February 2nd and 3rd. Sessions led by community leaders and sector experts will discuss the latest research and programmatic learnings, while sharing solutions for addressing emerging challenges — many of which focus on the role of self-care.
The world cannot achieve UHC without ensuring family planning is included as an essential intervention — and self-care is an effective tool to reach this goal.
Join members of the SCTG in panel discussions and roundtables at the Not Without FP Forum where they will discuss self-care and its role in effectively achieving UHC, strengthening primary health care, and improving access to family planning.
