Founded in 1948, WHO is the United Nations agency that connects nations, partners and people to promote health, keep the world safe and serve the vulnerable – so everyone, everywhere can attain the highest level of health.

WHO leads global efforts to expand universal health coverage. We direct and coordinate the world’s response to health emergencies. And we promote healthier lives – from pregnancy care through old age. Our Triple Billion targets outline an ambitious plan for the world to achieve good health for all using science-based policies and programmes.
WHO’s Thirteenth General Programme of Work (GPW 13) defines WHO’s strategy for the five-year period, 2019-2023. It focuses on triple billion targets to achieve measurable impacts on people’s health at the country level.

The triple billion targets are to ensure by 2023:
• One billion more people are benefiting from universal health coverage
• One billion more people are better protected from health emergencies
• One billion more people are enjoying better health and well-being

The WHO country office in Jordan has transited from GPW 13 to the Fourteenth General Programme of Work (GPW 14) for 2025-2028. These strategic frameworks guide WHO’s priorities, with a strong focus on strengthening country offices to deliver impactful results. GPW 14 outlines an ambitious agenda to realign global efforts toward achieving the health-related Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and addressing critical health challenges through six strategic objectives:
1. Responding to climate change, an escalating health threat.
2. Advance the PHC approach and essential health system capacities for UHC.
3. Prevent, mitigate, and prepare for health risks from all hazards.
4. Address determinants of health and root causes of ill health.
5. Improve health service coverage and financial protection.
6. Rapidly detect and sustain response to health emergencies

In Jordan, the WHO Country Office (WCO) aligns its efforts with national priorities, as reflected in Jordan’s Economic Modernization Vision and the Ministry of Health Strategic Plan 2023-2025, through the COUNTRY COOPERATION STRATEGY 2021-2025. Key CCS priorities include:
- Strengthening the health system to advance UHC.
- Building health system resilience and emergency preparedness.
- Promoting health and well-being.
- Enhancing data and innovation capacity.

A new Country Cooperation Strategy (CCS 2026-2030) is under development, that adapts the recent WHO country function evaluation recommendation emphasizing on strengthening mobilizing resources to facilitate WHO’s strategic and technical directions in implementing country priorities. In line with Jordan Economic Modernization Vision and adhering to UN Cooperative Framework, WHO’s global and regional priorities must ensure measurable impact at country level.
