WHO aids Kuwait in mapping out national statistical health strategy


The World Health Organization and the Ministry of Health have held a workshop for mapping out a national strategy for setting the health indices and measure the country's progress in the vital sector.

The local WHO office said in a statement on Tuesday that one of the goals of the four-day workshop is drawing up a comprehensive scheme for ten years to assembly data, pending decisions intended to improve the sector and allocate required resources.

Such an approach may help stem outbreaks of non-communicable diseases, provide better care and facilitate the information integration in the decision making processes.

The statement quoted Dr. Hessa Al-Kandari, the director of the national survey project, as saying that the surveillance plan covers all specific indices for revamping preventive programs to cut diseases' spread.
