LSE Research Showcase: How can open and inclusive decision-making help achieve universal health coverage?

LSE Research Showcase with Alex Voorhoeve

Topic: How can open and inclusive decision-making help achieve universal health coverage?

Tuesday 5 March, Shaw Library, 1-1.30pm

Achieving universal health coverage is one of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals. A new World Bank report, Open and Inclusive, examines how fair decision processes in health financing can help make progress towards this goal. It argues that they can contribute to fairer outcomes, strengthen the legitimacy of decision processes, build trust in authorities, and promote sustainable reforms on the path to health coverage for all. In this talk Professor Alex Voorhoeve, co-author of the report, considers how we can achieve these values and when ensuring procedural fairness can be costly – or even fail.

These sessions are open to LSE staff, students, alumni and prospective students. More about the event series.
