Health systems resilience : adapting universality to a changing world

Abstract

In the operations of universal health systems, the only constant is uncertainty. The global landscape of public health is defined by volatility. From pandemics and climate disasters to economic instability and social inequity, health systems worldwide face relentless pressure to adapt, absorb shocks, and transform. This book emerges as a vital response to these challenges. While deeply rooted in Brazil’s pioneering experience with its Unified Health System (SUS), this book transcends borders, offering universal insights for policymakers, practitioners, and scholars committed to fortifying health systems against uncertainty.
