At least since the Covid-19 pandemic, resilience has been a key preoccupation of policy-makers. Yet how to integrate it into health system performance assessments? A plethora of academic work over the last few years has attempted to conceptualize resilience as it pertains to health systems. But what do we know in terms of its practical application? In this webinar, we explore how a number of EU countries have practically measured health system resilience. Country representatives will impart which indicators are used and why, and how they fit into their national HSPAs.
Join us to hear how countries practically measure resilience!

Health Systems Performance Assessment spotlight series: shaping policies for progress
Policy-makers grapple with adapting their health systems to aging populations, chronic disease burdens, and rising health costs. Doing so requires a regular performance assessment to understand where the health system bottleneck is, where in the system the challenge is arising, and what are the options for improvement.
This webinar spotlight series draws on a recent special issue of the Bulletin of the World Health Organization on health system performance. Two webinars will specifically showcase 2 aspects of HSPA which are particularly important in times of permacrisis:
- Population perspectives as key data points in HSPA
- How EU countries measure resilience in practice in their HSPA
