UNA-SUS, in partnership with Fiocruz Brasília and the Ministry of Health, launched four courses this month focusing on health equity. The goal is to contribute to the improvement of strategies focused on access and care in Primary Health Care (PHC).

Primary Health Care (PHC) is recognized as the main entry point to the Unified Health System (SUS). Therefore, it must be a welcoming space, offering humane care and good practices, always in line with the principles that guide health as a right for all. Each course has a workload of 45 hours and enrollment will be open until May 11, 2026. See the available courses: Human Rights and Health Aimed at healthcare workers and managers involved in equity policies within the Brazilian Unified Health System (SUS), the course addresses fundamental themes that connect the principles of human rights to the promotion of health equity. The goal is to strengthen professional practice, promoting respect, dignity, and person-centered care. Access it here.
