NHWA: Definition
A system by which countries progressively improve the quality, availability and use of health workforce data and evidence through progressive monitoring of a set of indicators to support achievement of Universal Health Coverage, SDGs and other health goals.
![Page 4: National Health Workforce Accounts (NHWA): Concepts and ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021710/620b2d77a5422655bd62ca0a/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Purpose: National, Regional & Global
General purpose: to facilitate standardization of a health workforce information system for interoperability, and support tracking HRH policy performance towards universal health coverage.
The NHWA is built up of a set of indicators and data characteristics that can be progressively measured in order:
• to generate reliable HRH information and evidence;• to enable the planning, implementation and monitoring of
workforce policies towards UHC;• to improve the comparability of the health workforce
landscape nationally and globally; and• to enable research to be performed about future trends
regarding health workforce, systems and resilience planning.

Current challenges of the HRH Information systems in many countries
• Fragmented sub-systems not always inter-operable
• Inward looking approach (health alone) in many countries
• Challenges in providing disaggregated data ( sub-national levels, private sectors)
• Relevant governance and labour market indicators not documented
• Change of data culture: – Production for use, not only for reporting
– Limited Analysis, dissemaination and use
• Lack of standardization of tools, definitions accross countries
• Un-coordinated data collection efforts

- Proposals and recommendations to countries on how to implement NHWA
- For policy makers and programme managers
Some guiding principles:
• Countries are in the driving seat, these resources are there to facilitate and harmonise
• “A la carte”: pick elements in the guide that are relevant to your country, adapt, shake, blend, …, it is your cookbook
• Do not harm: should not have any detrimental effect on current health status and other initiatives improving global health
• Not reinventing the wheel: NHWA is being implemented in most countries using existing resources and working scheme already in place. Limited adaptation on existing system is required.

• WHO is developing an Implementation guide to help countries run NHWA in a sustainable manner.
• For policy makers and programme managers

Uses of NHWA for decision making
• Support evidence based decision making by providing quality and timely evidence for:
– Answering policy questions
– Informing development of national and sub-national health plans, investment cases and strategies
– Informing advocacy and resource mobilization efforts
– Standardizing tools an methodologies accros variousstakeholders
![Page 26: National Health Workforce Accounts (NHWA): Concepts and ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021710/620b2d77a5422655bd62ca0a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
DISSEMINATION
• THE Global Health Observatory• SDG and WB reporting• HRH investment cases• Planned strategic dissemination
– The GPW13 impact Framework– The State of the World Nursing Report 2020– The State of the World Midwifery Report 2020
But primarily for country use (tables, graphs, maps, profiles, dashboards)

National Health Workforce Accounts: Scope
• Beyond a list of indicators• Inclusive multi-sectoral governance
• Diversification of data sources
• System’s strengthening approach
• Key principle: Countries needs and interest first
• Partnership for HRH data, country support and capacity building
• Analytical work and key tools and products for country use
• Data use for decision making, raising awareness on HRH and resource mobilization
• Common open-source data platform
