At
#WHA79, I was pleased to join a timely and forward-looking discussion on health care financing for universal health coverage
#UHC. I would like to thank Burkina Faso, Jordan, Syrian Arab Republic and Türkiye and the
@OIC_OCI for bringing together partners to tackle one of the defining health challenges of our time.
At a moment of growing financial pressure on health systems, these conversations are more important than ever to help identify sustainable, locally driven solutions that protect access to care and strengthen resilience for the future. Traditional and innovative financing mechanisms, including Awqaf, Zakat, Sukuk and partnerships with development banks and the private sector, can help complement public financing and accelerate progress towards
#UHC.
The priority now is moving from discussion to implementation: strengthening governance, building evidence, aligning these mechanisms with national health financing strategies, and advancing practical country-level action that delivers equitable impact for communities across the
@WHOEMRO Region and beyond.
