In November 2005, for the Africa region as a whole, the participants of the "Evidence Based Workshop on Fair and Sustainable Health Financing" in Kampala endorsed the "Kampala Declaration". It states that health is a fundamental human right, which must be supported by fair and sustainable health financing systems. It affirms that out of pocket spending should be minimized and prepayments expanded to avoid impoverishment of households and move towards universal coverage.
