During this insightful discussion, the speakers shared their learnings, thoughts and experiences around the following points:
Access to healthcare is an important tenet to universal health coverage, which is also a part of SDGs. What are some innovative avenues that the CSR landscape is adopting to enhance access to healthcare?
Innovations often involve pilot projects. The past decade has been an era of innovations, the pandemic further catalysed the scope of innovations and thus the pilot projects. How can the pilot projects in the healthcare domain be scaled up to maximise impact?
What kind of commitments, institutional and systemic changes are required from the CSR fraternity to drive this change?
What are the challenges in scaling up a pilot project in the healthcare domain? Challenges in terms of policy structures, mandates, and collaborations?
What are the various partnerships and engagement models that the corporations should be working towards to increase the scope of impact for healthcare?
