Abstract

On 20 May 2025, LSE co-hosted a Ministerial Roundtable on Social Participation in Health as a side event at the World Health Assembly in Geneva, in collaboration with Brazil, France, Norway, Slovenia, Thailand, and Tunisia, and supported by staff from the World Health Organization (WHO). Civil society organizations and senior delegations from fifteen member states from across the world attended. Professor Alex Voorhoeve (Department of Philosophy, Logic and Scientific Method) shared key findings from a multi-year, collaborative research project involving policymakers and researchers from Norway, India, Mexico, South Africa, Ghana, the Gambia, Tanzania, Thailand, and Ukraine. The project’s findings are published as a World Bank Report, Open and Inclusive, Fair Processes for Financing UHC, and in the journals Health Policy and Planning and Health Economics, Policy and Law. Professor Voorhoeve summarizes them below.
