Why is the GHO Important for Public Health Policy?
Public health policy relies heavily on accurate and timely data. The GHO provides policymakers with essential information to design and implement effective health interventions. By understanding the distribution and determinants of health conditions, policymakers can allocate resources more efficiently, set health priorities, and develop strategies to address health disparities. The GHO also aids in monitoring the progress of global health goals, such as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
