Programme Budget 2026-2027

Welcome to the digital Programme budget 2026–2027!

The digital presentation of the Programme budget (PB) is divided into sections that can be read independently: Executive Summary, Outcomes, Outputs, Dashboards, and Explainers.

The executive summary provides a high-level overview of the Programme budget 2026-2027.

The outcomes page brings together key information on WHO’s outcomes: narrative, indicators, budget and links to their related outputs.

The outputs page brings together key information on WHO’s outputs: scope of work, main Secretariat’s deliverables, 2026-2027 prioritization and costing, 2022-2023 budget, financing, and implementation.

Interactive dashboards display results of the prioritization and budget costing that can be explored along various dimensions, e.g. major office.

Explainers include supporting documentation to aid comprehension and ensure an aligned understanding of the Programme budget.

The WHO Secretariat hopes that this Programme budget format further supports improved transparency, greater clarity and strengthen Secretariat’s accountability towards Member States.
