Advocacy achievements in Uganda accelerating healthy equity

Advocacy is a powerful tool for advancing health conversations to policy action and budget allocations. Since 2002, PATH has partnered with the Government of Uganda to implement impactful projects and programs that promote health equity. Our policy advocacy agenda in Uganda has been critical in supporting the adoption, implementation and financing of smart policies that advance the realization of universal health coverage in Uganda.

In the second half of 2023, PATH’s advocacy and policy team in Uganda undertook an effort to comprehensively document its tremendous impact on policies for women and children over the past five years. Most of the policy advocacy achievements documented were a result of strong collaboration and partnerships with key decision-makers in government, including both elected and appointed leaders (political and technical), the media, the private sector, and the civil society organizations that continue to passionately advance the advocacy agenda with a strong focus on universal health coverage (UHC).

The resources and videos below are the result of this process and were shared with PATH’s key stakeholders at a high-level national learning event.
