Access to Health
Goal 1: Universal access to quality, affordable health care
- Persuade companies from various sectors to adopt principles for health care and play a positive role in the national policy debate.
- Increase the visibility of shareholders’ efforts to support and achieve comprehensive health care reform and universal access.
Goal 2: Increasing access to medicine
- Monitor progress where pharmaceutical companies are developing innovative business models for research, pricing and intellectual property rights in emerging markets; and challenge companies who are not.
- Encourage companies to develop a comprehensive access strategy with improved public reporting on the impact and effectiveness of this strategy in addressing global health needs.
We Made It Happen! On December 14, UNITAID announced the creation of the Patent Pool for AIDS medicines. Thanks to all of you who took action to make this happen many more people with HIV will be able to afford life-saving medicines. |
