Social Health Protection – A path to fight against inequalities
Every country in the world faces the challenge of protecting its population. But how to set up social protection? Where to start?
At Enabel we are convinced that access to health care is a human right, and that a strong and lasting political commitment is needed to achieve this. Read more about our vision in the brochure we published on the subject.
