Universal Health and Preparedness Review (UHPR): national report of the Republic of Iraq

Overview

The Universal Health and Preparedness Review (UHPR) process was owned and led by the Republic of Iraq from its onset. Early in December 2021, the WHO Director-General sent a letter to Iraq acknowledging the commitment of the country and confirming WHO’s support for the review. A National Commission involving the Prime Minister, selected Ministers, and Governors was selected to lead the UHPR. A technical working group from the health sector was established to conduct the process under the leadership of the National Commission.
