The NHWA contains a set of 90 core indicators, divided over 10 modules. The purpose of the NHWA is to facilitate the standardization of a health workforce information system in order to improve data quality, as well as to support tracking HRH policy performance towards Universal Health Coverage (UHC).To achieve this goal, NHWA fulfills the following objectives: • Generate reliable HRH information and evidence; • Enable the planning, implementation and monitoring of workforce policies towards UHC; • Improve the comparability of the health workforce nationally, regionally and globally; and • Enable research to be performed about future trends regarding health workforce, systems and resilience planning. NHWA is relevant for national, regional and global stake¬holders. In particular, it can enable countries to develop evidence-based policies and plans for their health workforce and better understand and present their health workforce (HWF) data.
