On 16 March 2022 the P4H Network hosted the first of two webinars on social health protection and health financing reforms in three countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). P4H hosted the webinar in collaboration with the World Health Organization and International Labour Organization (ILO).
The webinar was intended to respond to interest expressed by CIS government representatives and expert communities in knowledge exchange and information sharing. The event coincided with a much-welcomed expansion of the P4H Network’s activities in the CIS . The first webinar focused on the experiences of three countries – Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan.
The webinar included over 150 attendees, consisting of high-level government officials and experts working on social health protection and health financing reforms in the region. The P4H Network will continue to plan other events in collaboration with CIS experts and P4H member organisations. The second webinar in the series will be held on 20 April 2022.

Webinar attendees found it valuable to discuss global experiences in different geopolitical and economic conditions, as well as region- and country-specific experiences. Each panellist received several questions from the audience, which were answered and documented.
The webinar recording is available on P4H Network’s YouTube channel in English and in Russian.
