Here you can view the full UHC Compendium database. The table below allows you to search across the Compendium database for your area of interest using the universal search bar. For instance, if you search for “cough”, the database will provide all the health actions which have any entries with the word “cough”. You also can find interventions by health programme(under review-to be added soon), life course or SDG goals. Interventions included in a number of WHO Program specific packages and global goals can be found using the filter below. 

You can also filter within specific categories of the Compendium architecture such as Group, Subgroup, Intervention category, intervention, action category, and action.

This version of the Compendium is a preliminary draft version for comments and consultation. As such, it presents only limited data and in a limited format. Future versions of the database shall contain additional information. Please use the survey below to send feedback.

Under review: Content for a number of interventions and actions is currently being reviewed by WHO subject matter experts or external individuals possessing relevant qualifications and/or experience. The content may be undergoing further revisions or, in some cases, be related to services where WHO guidance has not yet been developed or issued. We anticipate that these entries will be completed in future version updates.

Disclaimer:  WHO does not provide guidelines and reference documents for all potential UHC actions. The content within the Compendium is based on the current guidance from WHO. The intent is to provide an overview of health actions that countries may wish to consider for UHC, for those areas in which WHO currently provides guidance. The fact that an action is listed in the Compendium does not necessarily mean that it is applicable in all settings. Likewise, the fact that an action is not currently included in the Compendium does not mean that it is not a worthwhile investment. The Compendium will be updated over time as WHO guidance evolves.
