Member State Session on Revising SDG UHC Indicators 3.8.1 & 3.8.2

WHO reviews proposed revisions to SDG UHC indicators 3.8.1 & 3.8.2, potentially altering a decade of financial protection data.

On 21 August 2024, the World Health Organization (WHO) organised an information session for Member States to discuss the revision of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) indicators 3.8.1 and 3.8.2, which are crucial for monitoring progress toward Universal Health Coverage (UHC). The proposed changes to these indicators could lead to significant shifts in how financial protection outcomes have been measured over the past decade. See the presentation, particularly the detailed analysis on pages 34-35, to understand the potential impact of the revisions.

The presentation is accessible in English, Arabic, French, Russian, Chinese, and Spanish, to ensure broad accessibility and engagement from all member states.
