Building a Fairer, Healthier World

A Future with Health Equity for All

COVID-19 has hit all countries hard, but its impact has been harshest on those communities which were already vulnerable, who are more exposed to the disease, less likely to have access to quality health care services and more likely to experience adverse consequences as a result of measures implemented to contain the pandemic. This Civil Society Briefing will examine access to the vaccine globally, the mental health toll on health care workers and highlight the urgent need to invest in health workers for shared dividends in health, jobs, economic opportunity, and equity.

This briefing is co-organized by the UN Department of Global Communications, American Medical Women's Association, Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing, and Centre for Public Health.
