EQUINET links with HEPS Uganda

HEPS-Uganda is a Health Consumers’ Organisation advocating for health rights and responsibilities. The organisation is a coalition of health consumers, health advocates, health practitioners, CSOs and CBOs. HEPS is concerned about bottlenecks that hinder access to quality healthcare for the majority of Ugandans. The position of the organisation is that more preventive and curative means are necessary and that they should be designed from a health consumer’s perspective. More information on HEPS can be found at www.heps.org

EQUINET and the East, Central and Southern African Health Community Regional secretariat located in Arusha, Tanzania have agreed to a co-operation in areas of work on health systems in line with in resolutions of the Regional Health Ministers meetings and with health equity goals.
