Description : BACKGROUND

WHO Regional Office for the Western Pacific supports countries in monitoring progress towards SDGs and UHC. HII works with countries to improve the collection, reporting and management of health indicators and promote better use of health data for policy and action. Geographical information system (GIS) technologies have the potential to enhance current information use and the production of official statistics. This includes examining geospatial context of health indicators, generating evidence on geographic access to health services that can inform national plans on strategic enhancements to implement and priority areas to consider for improving health service delivery. The geographic dimension of service access is crucial to maintaining and improving health, ultimately, for achieving UHC.

PURPOSE/SPECIFIC OBJECTIVE OF THE ACTIVITY

As part of optimizing use of evidence for achieving universal health coverage (UHC) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the consultant will work with the Health Information and Intelligence (HII) unit at the World Health Organization Regional Office for the Western Pacific to provide technical assistance in conducting geospatial analyses using appropriate geographical information system technologies to reveal inequities in health care access among selected WPR countries and to address country-specific needs for GIS and use of geospatial data as part of strengthening country health information systems.
