Most foreign aid comes in one of two forms: either we pay a person or an institution today in exchange for delivering some beneficial activity in the future, or we observe something bad happen to them and then give them support to recover from it. This kind of aid is simple to design and deliver,
b...ut in the former case has limits in how sharply it incentivizes success and effort from a range of actors and in the latter case leads to the inefficient and undignified “begging bowl” approach to humanitarian financing.

Universal health coverage (UHC) has a central place in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030, as

Organization defines Universal Health Coverage (UHC) ...as a means through which all people and communities can use the

health and protection for the world’s poorest.
