It’s time for local partners to lead

When we shift power and co-create, co-implement, and co-evaluate programming alongside local partners, we can advance people-powered health solutions and get us all closer to Universal Health Coverage (UHC).

We are so excited to introduce this year’s Maverick Collective Summer Reading List.
