“The result report 2025<\/em> shows the support of Who<\/a> and partners, countries have delivered tangible benefits to millions of people,” said Who<\/a> Director General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus. “At the same time, These benefits cannot be taken for granted<\/strong>“<\/p>\n

Report, released before world health assembly<\/a> Over the next month, there will be progress on three fronts: expanding access to essential health services; strengthening protection against health emergencies; and improving overall well-being. <\/p>\n

Yet nearly half of its production targets remain unmet, financial pressures and internal restructuring have hampered distribution \u2013 and the world has fallen short of meeting health targets. sustainable development goals<\/a> (SDG) by 2030. <\/p>\n

Although WHO failed to reach this ‘Triple Billion’ target<\/a>The goal was to benefit more than one billion people on each of the three fronts by the end of 2025 compared to 2018, yet not enough progress was made.<\/p>\n

An estimated 567 million additional people were covered by essential health services in 2025. to 136 million by 2024<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

About 698 million more people were better protected from health emergencies, which is 61 million more than the previous year.<\/strong>. And, 1.75 billion additional people were living healthy lives A jump of 300 million by 2024<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Progress toward universal health coverage was driven by expanded services for communicable diseases including HIV and tuberculosis, improved sanitation, and a growing health workforce. However, gaps remain in diabetes management, measles surveillance, and financial security.<\/p>\n

Hard-earned money is in danger due to lack of funding<\/strong><\/h2>\n

However, low staffing capacity, limited technical assistance and slow program implementation were among the immediate consequences. <\/p>\n

A large portion of WHO’s budget is also earmarked for specific thematic areas, limiting strategic flexibility.<\/p>\n

The findings will be presented by Tedros at the 79th World Health Assembly in Geneva from 18 to 23 May 2026.<\/p>\n
