LSE Philosophy Professor Alex Voorhoeve gave one of LSE’s popular Research Showcase talks recently and discussed the important question: How can we help achieve universal health coverage? The video of the talk is now available on YouTube.

About the talk: Achieving universal health coverage is one of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals. A new World Bank report, “Open and Inclusive”, examines how fair decision processes in health financing can help make progress towards this goal. It argues that they can contribute to fairer outcomes, strengthen the legitimacy of decision processes, build trust in authorities, and promote sustainable reforms on the path to health coverage for all. In this talk Professor Alex Voorhoeve, co-author of the report, considers how we can achieve these values and when ensuring procedural fairness can be costly – or even fail.
