Measuring health financing vulnerability due to reductions in official development assistance
Despite a 33% increase in Official Development Assistance (ODA) from 2019 to 2023, aid declined by 7% in 2024 and projected to further decline in 2025–2027. Health systems in Africa are being impacted by the sudden aid freezes and cuts. There are no multicriteria metrics to estimate the vulnerability of countries to facilitate dialogue and decisions. This paper proposes an approach to assess country’s vulnerability to external aid cuts, consideri…

This study examines the counter-verification activities within Côte d'Ivoire's PBF program, providing insights into its implementation and challenges. METHO…
Projected health workforce requirements and shortage for addressing the disease burden in the WHO Africa Region, 2022–2030

This analysis provides an overview of the health workforce in the WHO African Region for the last decade. METHODS: Data were extracted a…
