The Bujumbura conference is in line with the commitments made by the Association Internationale de la Mutualit\u00e9 (AIM) to promote and support the development of mutual health insurance in Africa, in order to meet the challenge of enrolling populations in strong, accessible, quality health and social protection systems.<\/p>\n

The event is also part of a specific international context.
\nThe International Labour Organization<\/a> (ILO) Resolution<\/a> on decent work and the social\/solidarity-based economy, and theUnited Nations<\/a> Resolution on the promotion of the social\/solidarity-based economy for sustainable development, include clear calls to governments.
\nThese resolutions offer the mutualist movement a unique opportunity to play a central role in the social economy, thereby contributing to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals. <\/p>\n

The recent Conclusions of the ILO’s work on decent work and the care economy<\/a> also recognize the role of social economy entities in delivering healthcare.
\nThe European Union has also adopted its Global Health Strategy, which recognizes that the progress made towards universal health coverage has been wiped out by the COVID-19 crisis. <\/p>\n
