Metrics and measurement

Conducting research to improve the monitoring of Universal Health Coverage by measuring how health systems respond to population ageing.

Metrics are a way of quantifying something using a standardized method. Metrics are critical for assessing progress toward Universal Health Coverage (UHC) in a way that is comparable across place and time. WKC conducts research on metrics and related issues that can help strengthen UHC monitoring efforts, given the health system challenges of population ageing.
