*Action for Equitable Health Systems- Advancing universal comprehensive
primary health care in pandemic times*



Dear Friends



We are happy to announce that the Equitable Health Systems Thematic Circle
of People's Health Movement (PHM) along with PHM South Asia and PHM South
East Asia Pacific Region, is organising a capacity building course
(International People's Health University, IPHU) on *"Action for Equitable
Health Systems- Advancing comprehensive primary health care in pandemic
times”*. Through this course we plan to build a better understanding among
health activists of why health and healthcare is an entitlement of all
human beings, and how this can be realized and of current best practices in
this area. The course would also build skills for activists to analyse
where they are on the road map and mobilize people as well as advocate with
the government for an accelerated push towards Health For All.



The course is open to participants from selected countries in South Asia
and South-East Asia and will be held in December 2022.  The course is
designed as a hybrid program with an online component, an onsite face to
face training program in Bangkok, Thailand which includes field visits and
a post training mentored six month follow up. The dates for IPHU are-
