Health Financing and Economics
We aim to empower actors and increase accountability, transparency and responsiveness in health systems in support of progress towards financial protection as part of universal health coverage (UHC).
Health accounts learning corner
WHO focuses on capacity building of country Health Accounts (HA) teams by providing training that spans the entire process—from data collection, to the production of HA following the SHA 2011 methodology and including the operation of e-tools like HAPT, all the way to the dissemination and utilization of results for policymaking. This self-paced training aims to foster collaboration in generating high-quality, timely information to monitor Universal Health Coverage (UHC) policies.
