News Social Determinants of Health (SDH) in the city of Maputo (Finished)

2018 ended with a very important event for medicusmundi and our partner organisations in Mozambique for the Right to Health and for the defence of a quality public health system that prioritises primary health care and a focus on the social determinants of health.

It will come as no surprise if I say we are living in times when health, around the world, is being transformed into a highly desirable consumer good and, in some parts of our planet, one within reach of only a very few people.

I could start this closing speech just to say yes, we have achieved the conference goal: to increase academic knowledge on the social determinants of health in Mozambique.
