Youth engagement
Youth voices are critical to building health systems that serve everyone. Follow these three simple steps to get involved in the annual campaign and global movement for health for all.
1. Sign up for UHC Day updates.
This year's Substack series will start up again with the official campaign launch October. In the meantime, you can check out the last two series on social participation and how to prepare a campaign.
2. Tell your story.
If you’ve ever had to choose between health care and other necessities, such as food or tuition, share your story in a short video. Publish it on social media using the hashtags #HealthCostsHurt and #UHCDay so that we can amplify it!
3. Join the youth challenge.
Participate in the youth challenge for a chance to win a prize and be featured as a UHC champion. The 2026 challenge will reopen after the campaign launch in October. Check back then, and read about last year's champions in the meantime.
Don’t be a bystander. Raise your voice, speak your truth, and help build the health systems that shape your world and your future.
