OBJECTIVES OF
THE PROGRAMME :
All the
Member States of WHO in the South East Asia Region share the common values of
the highest attainable standard of health as a fundamental human right. All of
WHO actions are based on this and rooted in the underlying values of equity,
solidarity and participation.
The seven
point global health agenda contained in WHO's Eleventh General Programme of
Work (2006-2015) includes: (i) investing in health to reduce poverty; (ii)
building individual and global health security; (iii) promoting universal coverage,
gender equality and health related human rights; (iv) tackling determinants of
health; (v) strengthening health systems and equitable access; (vi) harnessing
knowledge, science and technology; and (vii) strengthening governance,
leadership and accountability.
WHO's mandate
revolves around six core functions: (i) providing leadership on global health
matters; (ii) shaping the health research agenda; (iii) setting norms and
standards; (iv) articulating evidence-based policy options; (v) providing technical
support to countries; and (vi) monitoring and assessing health trends.
The South
-East Asia Region of WHO is made up of 11 countries, with over 1.8 billion
people, with India's population of 1.2 billion. The diversity of people and
health situations requires, on the demand side, a solid understanding of the
emerging socio-economic, epidemiologic and demographic patterns and trends at
both aggregate as well as national and sub-national levels, with due
sensitivity to disadvantaged populations and vulnerable segments of the
society. On the supply side, it is equally crucial to have a solid
understanding of the commonalities and divergences of the health systems, the
circumstances and political economy under which they have evolved and operate.
Mission of
the WHO Country Office for India
Within the
framework of WHO's Country Cooperation Strategy the mission of the WHO Country
Office is to support India in: (i) developing and sustaining its own health
policies, health systems and public health programmes; (ii) working to prevent
and overcome threats to health; (iii) anticipating future challenges; and (iv)
