WHO'S CONTRIBUTION TOWARDS HEALTH OUTCOMES

 

 

BUDGET FINANCING AND IMPLEMENTATION

Overview

 

    532.00 million US$ Approved revised programme budget
    421.00 million US$ Available funds
    239.00 million US$ Utilization

Country priority setting for the period of the Thirteenth General Programme of Work (2019-2023) was carried out at the level of outcome to establish priority outcomes for our joint work with the Member States. The WHO Programme budget is approved by the World Health Assembly at the outcome level, with priority setting driving the bottom-up costing of the budget. At the end of 2022, 36% of the priority outcomes at country level reached 75% financing. Further disaggregation of financing to the level of outcome and major office shows a number of outcomes with significant underfunding, which highlights the chronic lack of sustainable financing to reduce funding gaps. It also underlines the importance of flexible resources, which are key to ensure equitable financing of all outcomes.
