 December 12th marks the Universal Health Coverage Day. Today's theme, health for all, everyone, everywhere embodies IOM's efforts to promote the health of migrants and communities. Universal health coverage will not be truly universal nor will target 3.8% of the sustainable development goals be achieved unless health services and financial protection measures in all countries progressively include migrants, especially those marginalized or in situations of vulnerability. Migrants can face many obstacles assessing services, including lack of inclusive health policies, language barriers, discrimination, irregular status and catastrophic health expenditures, among others. In order to truly leave no one behind, the health needs and realities of migrants as well as the role of migrants as co-developers of health services and contributors to development must be included in efforts to achieve the sustainable development goals. Health is a human right. It's time for health for all. IOM welcomed the landmark political declaration on universal health coverage, its explicit mention of migrants and recognition of critical issues such as complex emergencies and climate change at the high-level meeting at the United Nations General Assembly in September this year. This declaration joins the 2030 agenda, the global compact for safe, orderly and regular migration and relevant to WHO frameworks and action plans to create mutually reinforcing cooperation frameworks. As the secretariat and coordinator of the UN Migration Network, IOM stands ready to leverage the full potential of multi-sectoral cooperation in partnership with our member states, United Nations partners and other stakeholders, including migrants, to achieve universal health coverage.
