Resources and planning

The framework for the financial resources and expenditures of WHO is derived from the 11th General Programme of Work, which covers the period 2006-2015.

From 2008, a medium-term strategic plan will form the framework for WHO's results-based management. The six-year plan — for 2008 to 2013 — will cover three biennial budget periods, starting with the biennium 2008-2009.

The strategic plan and its first Programme Budget for 2008-2009 were adopted by the World Health Assembly in May 2007.
