Question to the Department for International Development:
What steps her Department is taking with the World Health Organisation to achieve the sustainable development goals to (a) end preventable child deaths and (b) establish universal health coverage.
This question was answered on 21st November 2018
The UK supports WHO’s leadership on health systems and work to achieve Universal Health coverage, including ending preventable child deaths and addressing global health security, and I commend WHO’s leadership on the recent Ebola outbreaks in DRC. DFID funds WHO to provide technical assistance, develop global standards and norms, strengthen country health systems and support health and wellbeing for all.
