We celebrate 10 years of WHO–Kazakhstan partnership — a truly special collaboration. 💙 Most don’t call us “the WHO European Centre for PHC,” but simply the Almaty Centre, the Almaty team — a sign of trust, connection & shared purpose. #PHC4UHC #Kazakhstan #HealthForAll

Teamwork operationalized. Teamwork isn’t a slogan here—it’s how care happens. At @CASAPCanBou, physicians, nurses, social workers, and psychologists share patients, data, and decisions. This model shows how to operationalize collaboration for truly people-centred #PHC.

At the @CASAPCanBou health centre 🇪🇸, the 🇨🇳–🇪🇸 WHO PHC Demonstration Platform saw community orientation in action. Teams know their population, work closely with local partners, and reach out proactively to keep people healthy—not just treat them when sick #PHC4UHC #HealthforAll

In the 🇨🇳–🇪🇸 exchange under the WHO PHC Demo Platform, one question stood out: 💬 How can countries sustain political commitment to #PHC? Leaders agreed: investing in PHC is a political choice. Growing budgets, strong evidence & community voice keep it high on the agenda.

In my speech on Friday, I echoed @hans_kluge’s vision: managing PHC differently means thinking in 4Ps — Precision, Pathways, Professionals & Participation. It’s time to move from control to connection, from reporting to foresight, from silos to systems. Lead with trust. #PHC4UHC

What did the new generation of PHC professionals take away from the visit to Spain? 🇪🇸 A young nurse and a family doctor were inspired by the expanded roles of their Spanish colleagues — ready to bring fresh ideas and energy to their teams back home. #PHC4UHC @LithuanianGovt
