Countries as diverse as Brazil, France, Japan, Thailand, and Turkey have shown how UHC can serve as a vital mechanism for improving the health and welfare of their citizens and lay the foundation for economicgrowth and competitiveness grounded in the principles of equity and sustainability. Ensuring universalaccess to affordable, quality health services will be an important contribution to ending extreme poverty by2030 and boosting shared prosperity in low-income and middle-income countries, where most of the world'spoor live.Universal Health Coverage for Inclusive and Sustainable Development synthesizes the experiences from11 countries-Bangladesh, Brazil, Ethiopia, France, Ghana, Indonesia, Japan, Peru, Thailand, Turkey, andVietnam-in implementing policies and strategies to achieve and sustain UHC.
