Partnerships play a key role helping address health data gaps.

To avoid fragmentation, countries must drive the discussions about their strengths and gaps in Health Information Systems (HIS), leading the way for better partner coordination and alignment.

Today we have launched the 2023 UHC Global Monitoring Report, revealing how progress on universal health coverage is stalling – and what it will take to get back on track.

[World Health Organization (WHO) @WHO]

Are we getting closer to achieving Universal Health Coverage (UHC)?

New WHO & @WorldBank Global Monitoring Report on UHC presents an alarming picture of stagnating coverage of essential health services & increased financial hardship: https://t.co/MfPoym8wLa

Truly protecting and promoting health, therefore, means addressing #determinants of health that lie mostly outside the health sector. Creating healthy populations is not solely the task of ministries of health, but requires health-promoting policy https://t.co/d3n1pF0Foq

[Health Data Collaborative @HDC4SDGs]

Health data must be:

1⃣ Secure
2⃣ Standardized
3⃣ Interoperable

Join @HDC4SDGs this Thurs & Fri to promote #HealthData as a global good that informs decision-making and policy design #InvestInData

The Health Data Collaborative @HDC4SDGs aims to support & streamline existing processes rather than add to an already high reporting burden.

A new @WHO survey shows that health systems are starting to recover from the #COVID19 pandemic: https://t.co/zQWlytSDt7 This is very welcome news! But, we call on countries to advance their efforts to address the remaining disruptions & invest in further health system resilience.

Liz Truss has just asked me to become Chancellor. I told her to clean up her own mess.

[Craig Burgess @dialoguehealthy]

I am sorry to hear this. It is a sad recurrent issue. For a recent meeting in Geneva, colleagues from Kenya, Senegal and Nepal all had issues to get Swiss visas & could not come. More meetings should be in Africa and Asia.

I’ve been mistreated at @Airport_FRA by immigration personnel who imagine I want to stay back illegally. My attendance of the @WorldHealthSmt is now in doubt. I’m happier & safer back home in Africa. They invite you then mistreat you.
