Africa’s roadmap to Universal Health Coverage: Insights from the first Inter-African Webinar organised by the Integrated Health Organisation

This report sums up a webinar organised by the Integrated Health Organisation (IHO) on December 12, 2020, focused on Africa’s progression towards Universal Health Coverage (UHC). The four-hour virtual meeting had four speakers presenting on understanding UHC, the role of NGOs, malaria prevention and challenges in mental health care. A significant question debated was the involvement of African youths in achieving UHC. The report discusses these presentations in detail, emphasising the need for primary health care, the contribution of Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs), the importance of knowledge and attitudes towards malaria prevention and the perception and management of mental health disorders by health care providers in Cameroon. It concludes with a call to action for all stakeholders, including governments, NGOs, community health workers and the community, to actively participate in health management to achieve UHC in Africa. The webinar was hailed as a significant step towards this goal, and plans to make it an annual event were discussed.
