Overview
The World Health Organization South-East Asia Regional Office (WHO SEARO) has released its tenth annual report, Monitoring Progress on Universal Health Coverage and the Health-Related Sustainable Development Goals in the South-East Asia Region – 2025 Update. The report offers an in-depth analysis of regional and country-level progress on health-related SDG indicators, along with five additional indicators from WHO’s Thirteenth General Programme of Work (GPW13).
Covering all 10 Member States, the report compares achievements against global targets using the latest available data. It highlights areas of significant advancement as well as critical gaps that demand accelerated action to achieve Universal Health Coverage (UHC) and the health-related SDGs by 2030.
This year’s thematic focus is “Progress on the decade for strengthening the role of the health sector for improving civil registration and vital statistics (CRVS) in the South-East Asia Region (2015–2024)”. The report details how countries have enhanced the completeness of birth and death registration, improved cause-of-death reporting, and reinforced health sector linkages with CRVS systems through the Regional Action Framework on CRVS in Asia and the Pacific.
A notable feature of the 2025 report is the enhanced set of country profiles, offering evidence-based insights on UHC, SDG progress, and CRVS system development. These profiles serve as valuable tools for policymakers, helping Member States track outcomes, identify persistent challenges, and prioritize actions to accelerate progress toward the 2030 Agenda.
