Lessons learnt relating to measuring progress and impact

In what way are new health needs evolving?
Intersection of health with other development priorities and intersectoral strategies
How has the development landscape changed since 2000?

17. Framing the health goal(s)
How does health fit in the post 2015 development agenda?
How do health, and health goals, interact with the dimensions of sustainable development? Links with the development of the Sustainable Development Goals?
How do we ensure that the unfinished MDG agenda is reflected in the post 2015 agenda?
How can overarching health goal(s) be framed in a way that has traction with politicians and the public; and are also amenable to measurement and monitoring?
Capturing equity, the specific needs of marginalized populations, social determinants, and the implementation of human rights-based approaches in overarching health goal(s)

18. Measurement of progress towards the health goals
What are the best indicators and targets for health?
Health status (e.g. life expectancy, years of healthy life)
Conditions and means that create better health and can protect people from poverty (including universal health coverage)
Combination of both? Other options?
How can a very limited number of high level indicators and targets be linked to the much broader monitoring needs of the health sector?
How can measurement move beyond averages to track progress of different groups within countries and measure equity?

19. Ensuring a process and outcome that is relevant to the key stakeholders
How can key stakeholders and partners, singly and collectively, best help to position health in the post-2015 agenda?
Enhancing country ownership, commitment, capacity and accountability for the goals, targets and indicators
How can we ensure effective working relations between countries and key partners in terms of alignment and harmonisation with a focus on development results?
How can civil society and NGOs, as well as the private sector and academia be engaged more effectively in defining and furthering the health-related goals and targets, while also bearing in mind their accountability and responsibility?
