One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Primary health care: definition, history and principles

Primary Health Care (PHC) is a holistic, community‑oriented approach to health that seeks to provide essential health services through equitable, intersectoral, and participatory means. It emerged from the Alma‑Ata Declaration of 1978, emphasizing that health is a human right and that prevention, health promotion, and basic treatment must be accessible to all.
