Country cooperation strategy 2023-2027: Eritrea
Transforming Eritrea Together to Achieve UHC and SDGs
Overview
The WHO Eritrea Country Cooperation Strategy (CCS4) was jointly developed by the Ministry of Health and stakeholders such as development partners, other UN agencies and the WHO Country Office. The objective of the CCS is to demonstrate how WHO as a Secretariat (i.e. the Country Office, Regional Office in Brazzaville and Headquarters in Geneva) would jointly contribute to the attainment of national health development goals of Eritrea. In that regard, this strategy aligns WHO work on the Eritrea’s Health Sector Strategic and Development Plan III (HSSDPIII) 2022-2026 aimed at improving the health status of its people.
The CCS strategic priorities include: 1. Increase achievement of Universal Health Coverage, leaving no one behind. 2. Enhance health security through strengthened prevention, detection and response. 3. Optimize synergy, coordination, and leadership on the determinants of health for improved health and well-being. 4. Enhance health systems functionality to modernize medical services and expand resilient and comprehensive public health services.
