World Health Organization Fourteenth General Program of Work, 2025–2028

 In 2023, the Seventy-sixth World Health Assembly, having considered the report by the Director-General on sustainable financing, requested the Director-General to develop the draft Fourteenth General Programme of Work, 2025–2028 (GPW 14) in consultation with the Member States, as the technical strategy to underpin the first WHO investment round in the last quarter of 2024. GPW 14 is to replace the Thirteenth General Programme of Work, 2019–2025 (GPW 13) one year early, include a financing envelope and strong results narrative, and draw on lessons learned from GPW 13. GPW 14 will be considered for approval by the Seventy-seventh World Health Assembly in 2024, through the Programme, Budget and Administration Committee of the Executive Board at its thirty-ninth meeting and by the Executive Board at its 154th session.
