BUILDING MOMENTUM FOR PRIMARY HEALTH CARE Please use this Social Media Toolkit. It matters.

As the global health community prepares for the Alma Alta Global Conference on Primary Health Care (October 25-26 in Astana, Kazakhstan), this is the time to increase our momentum.

The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is proud to work with you, our partner. Together we have made significant progress towards strengthening primary health care systems and produced positive outcomes with vulnerable populations around the globe.

We ask you to join us in a social media campaign to accelerate progress by raising public awareness of our goals and accomplishments.

We are providing compelling social media content that is easy to use. Feel free to customize these social media posts and pictograms to your organization’s brand and your specific contributions. USAID and its partners have an important story to tell about increasing access to primary health care.

Together we can highlight our accomplishments and build momentum toward strengthening primary health care and making it more accessible for everyone.
