The Executive Board special session on the draft Thirteenth General Programme of Work will take place in Geneva between 22 and 23 November 2017.
The Director-General will present for the Board’s consideration the draft general programme of work 2019−2023. The draft general programme of work is fully aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals. It offers a statement of vision, mission and priorities for WHO, as well as clear strategic priorities, strategic shifts and organizational shifts. It is also in harmony with the Director-General’s agenda for change and reflects the shifts in WHO’s methods of work that will be required to support that change.
