WHO health inequality monitoring eLearning course series

17 June, 2025

Dear HIFA colleagues,

Health inequality monitoring provides critical evidence to determine who is being left behind and inform equity-oriented changes to policies, programmes and practices.

A series of WHO health inequality monitoring eLearning courses is now hosted on the GRAPH platform, available here<https://thegraphcourses.org/health-ineq/>. It is primarily targeted to monitoring and evaluation officers, researchers, analysts, and others with a general interest in health data and inequality monitoring.

The free, self-paced courses include:

* Health inequality monitoring foundations' courses that introduces foundational concepts of health inequality monitoring.

* Topic-specific courses about monitoring inequalities in immunization; in reproductive, maternal and child health; and in HIV, tuberculosis and malaria.

* Skill-building courses that provide step-by-step guidance in conducting inequality data analysis using Excel, Stata, R and the Health Equity Assessment Toolkit (HEAT).
