Dear Partner
The first ever United Nations High-Level Meeting (UN HLM) to discuss Universal Health Coverage (UHC) will be held on the margins of the UN General Assembly meeting in September 2019, in New York, USA..

In the lead to the UN HLM and to provide CSOs with a platform to shape the discussions, International Federation of Red Cross (IFRC) in collaboration with the Kenya Red Cross, and in Partnership with the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/ AIDS (UNAIDS) and Civil Society Engagement Mechanism (CSEM) for UHC2030), are supporting 14 countries to conduct National Civil Society consultations and Advocacy meetings, to mobilize political leadership and influence the overall outcome of the UN HLM. Kenya is among the selected countries.
The Kenya National CSO Consultations and Advocacy Meeting in preparation for the High – Level Meeting on UHC will be held on Thursday 18th July 2019, at the Boma Hotel, Off Mombasa Road from 8.30 AM to 4.30 PM.
