Universal Health Coverage in Emerging Economies featuring World Bank Group President Jim Kim

January 14, 2014 • 1:30 – 9:00 pm EST

Improving Health while Preserving Wealth

As countries around the world become wealthier and their empowered citizens increasingly push for better social services, an increasing number of countries - especially emerging economies - seek to provide affordable health care as an essential step to promote long-term economic development and social stability.

Over the course of a day-long CSIS conference, global health and finance experts will discuss: why universal health coverage is gaining momentum; how to build a coverage scheme, including the role of the private sector; and how countries can optimize resources.

Breakfast and lunch will be provided to registered guests.
