Primary Health Care (PHC) Approach is a community-based strategy that ensures basic health services are accessible, affordable, and equitable for all. Introduced at the Alma-Ata Conference in 1978, it focuses on:

  • Universal access and equity
  • Community participation
  • Health promotion and disease prevention
  • Intersectoral collaboration
  • Use of appropriate technology

PHC aims to improve overall health by addressing the root causes of illness and involving people in their own care.
