Health Indicators 2016: Indicators for Monitoring and Evaluation of Strategy Health for All

This is the 32nd edition of the "Indicators for Monitoring and Evaluation of The Strategy Health for All" since the first Common Framework for evaluation (CFE) was carried out in 1985. The global indicators have remained unchanged ever since. These indicators represented the essential minimum for member countries of WHO to evaluate their own national strategy towards HFA goals.

Following each alternating cycle of monitoring and evaluation by the member countries and by the
six regional coordinating centres, the Executive Board of the WHO and the World Health Assembly
was able to evaluate the HFA strategy globally. With each global monitoring and evaluation, the list of indicators was modified to ensure that it was adequate. In the course of the global reviews, the list of indicators was supplemented by sub-indicators and additional indicators to facilitate country monitoring and evaluation.
