Sustainable Development Goal 3 aims to ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all, at all ages. Health and well-being are important at every stage of one’s life, starting from the beginning. This goal addresses all major health priorities: reproductive, maternal, newborn, child and adolescent health; communicable and non-communicable diseases; universal health coverage; and access for all to safe, effective, quality and affordable medicines and vaccines.
IRETICares is positioned to bridge the Universal Health Coverage gap in the Country. The National Health Insurance Scheme Strategic Plan (2020-2030) stated that only about 4.2 per cent of Nigerians are covered under the Social Health Insurance. This translates to about 8.4 million persons out of an estimated population of 210 million Nigerians.
IRETICares is powered by the Citizen-driven Social Action Marketplace Token of the 2RUHOPE Campaign (GIGGA Token) for the activation of 600,000 Health Insurance E-Wallets across communities in Abuja.
