WHO Biennial Report for Mauritius 2022_2023

This report highlights the WHO’s work with the Ministry of Health and Wellness (MOHW), the Government and its many partners to i) build resilient health systems to advance Universal Health Coverage, ii) strengthen Emergency Preparedness and Response, iii) promote healthy behaviours and healthy environments, and iv) support use of data and evidence for integrated people-centered care. These four pillars of the WHO’s intervention in Mauritius are aligned with WHO’s Thirteenth Global Programme of Work and form the base of our Country Cooperation Strategy (CCS) 2023-2026 which we launched in January 2023 with many of you. Our CCS was developed to dovetail with the MOHW’s Health Sector Strategic Plan 2020-2024 and the Government Programme 2020-2024. It also provided the strategic health outcomes for the three pillars - People, Prosperity and Planet - of the United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework signed in October 2023 to ensure greater synergy between WHO and other UN agencies to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030.
