Ariana Childs Graham

Director, Primary Health Care Initiative, PAI

In collaboration with diverse partners, Ariana Childs Graham advocates for strengthening of primary health care (PHC) systems to achieve universal health coverage (UHC). Underpinning these efforts is an integrated, people-centered approach to health and solutions that address the challenges of underfunded and fragmented health systems in low- and middle-income countries.

She convenes the PHC Strategy Group, a coalition of civil society advocates that promotes equitable access to high-quality essential health services. She co-convenes the UHC Financing Advocacy Collaborative, a multi-stakeholder partnership that shines a spotlight on critical health financing priorities relating to universal health coverage.

Past roles with the Global Leaders Council for Reproductive Health, FP2020 and the Coalition for Adolescent Girls cemented her commitment to systemic change through partnerships.
