An interactive panel discussion with audience Q&A
While good health and well-being remain elusive for many women, particularly marginalized groups: migrants and refugees, disabled women, LGBTQ+ identifying individuals, indigenous women, practitioners, activists and affected populations are collaborating to implement actions to accelerate equality in health care delivery.
The panel discussion will cover challenges and successes as they relate to health and access to health services. The new challenges due to COVID-19 will be addressed as well. Panelists will talk about the collaborative aspect of their work: How civil society organizations and governments are working together towards the 2030 Agenda, nationally and globally.
This is an official side event of the UN High-Level Political Forum.
