UNAIDS & GHWA action plan for zero discrimination in health care settings

UNAIDS & GHWA action plan for zero discrimination in health care settings

UNAIDS - “UNAIDS and the World Health Organization’s Global Health Workforce Alliance are initiating an agenda for action towards the elimination of discrimination in health-care settings. The agenda aims to create a world in which everyone, everywhere, enjoys health services without discrimination, and where the health workforce is empowered to provide discrimination-free health care.

The agenda aims to prioritize actions in three critical areas:  Political impact: by increasing political commitment through mobilization of all key constituencies, to secure prioritization of this agenda at all levels.  Accountability: by promoting monitoring and evaluation frameworks and mechanisms to build evidence, monitor progress and ensure accountability. Implementation: by fostering scale-up of implementation of effective actions to achieve discrimination-free health care.”
