Process Indicators in
This dashboard is designed to explore Process indicators across Pakistan, tracking progress toward strengthening health systems, reducing mortality from environmental risks, managing risk factors, and improving health emergency preparedness.
Compare provincial performance across Process indicator categories (IHR Index, Mortality Indicators, Risk Factors, and Health Systems), monitor key indicators over time, and identify areas for policy intervention. Data visualization tools help stakeholders understand Process indicator progress and make evidence-based decisions for improving health outcomes across Pakistan's diverse regions.
IHR INDEX TREND
Yearly Trend - National/Pakistan
PROCESS INDICATOR CATEGORIES
Process indicators are measured across four key categories: IHR Index (health emergency preparedness), Mortality Indicators (environmental risks), Risk Factors (tobacco use, antimicrobial resistance), and Health Systems (ODA, essential medicines, health worker density). Understanding performance across these dimensions is crucial for developing comprehensive health policies that strengthen health systems and reduce preventable deaths across Pakistan.
The interactive radial chart below provides a comprehensive view of Pakistan's performance across the four Process indicator categories. Each axis represents a different Process category, allowing for visual comparison of relative strengths and areas requiring attention. By examining the shape and coverage of the radial chart, stakeholders can quickly identify which Process categories are performing well and which need targeted intervention efforts to improve health outcomes and achieve Process indicator targets.
A larger area across Process categories on the radial below indicates positive performance.

International Health Regulations (IHR) capacity and health emergency preparedness. The IHR Index measures Pakistan's capacity across 13 core competencies for detecting, assessing, notifying, and responding to public health threats of international concern.
Methodology and Data Dictionary
This Process Indicators Dashboard is designed to explore Process indicators across Pakistan provinces and territories. The dashboard provides comprehensive insights into International Health Regulations (IHR) Index (Indicator 3.d.1) and other Process indicators, tracking progress toward strengthening health systems, reducing mortality from environmental risks, managing risk factors, and improving health emergency preparedness.
Data Sources:
World Health Organization (WHO); Pakistan Bureau of Statistics (PBS); Pakistan Demographic and Health Survey (PDHS); Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey (MICS); National Institute of Population Studies (NIPS); Provincial Health Departments; Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC); Pakistan Medical Commission (PMC); National Health Accounts (NHA); Drug Regulatory Authority of Pakistan (DRAP); Ministry of National Health Services, Regulations and Coordination.
Data Collection Methodology:
The dashboard aggregates data from multiple sources including WHO assessments, household surveys, administrative health records, vital registration systems, and international health monitoring frameworks. Data is collected at national, provincial, and district levels to ensure comprehensive coverage of Pakistan's diverse health landscape.
Data Quality and Limitations:
This dashboard relies on publicly available and officially reported health data that have been validated through established statistical procedures. However, variations in data quality across provinces and potential underreporting in certain regions should be considered when interpreting results. Regular updates ensure the most current available information is presented.
Indicator Definitions:
All Process indicators follow World Health Organization (WHO) and SDG 3 framework definitions. The IHR Index (3.d.1) measures a country's capacity across 13 core competencies for health emergency preparedness and response. Other Process indicators include mortality rates from environmental risks (air pollution, unsafe water/sanitation, poisoning), risk factors (tobacco use, antimicrobial resistance), and health system capacity (ODA, essential medicines, health worker density).
