Abstract

The World Health Organization (WHO) is the key United Nations specialized agency dedicated to promoting population health and health outcomes. In order for the Organization to achieve its strategic objectives, WHO designates selected institutions as collaborating centres to assit with carrying out WHO core activities. The Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMR) currently hosts 45 collaborating centres (as of December 2018), which is only 5% of the 832 WHO collaborating centres located worldwide, and yet EMR countries host about 10% of the global population. The reason for this discrepency could be a reflection of the limited public resources allocated to health research in the Region. However, it may also highlight the fact that resources and opportunities for establishing effective collaborating centres in the EMR still remain untapped.

摘要

世界卫生组织（世卫组织）是联合国专门机构，致力于增进人口健康和卫生成果。为了实现本组织的战略目标，世卫组织指定一些机构为协作中心，协助开展世卫组织核心活动。东地中海区域（东地中海区域）目前有 45 个协作中心（截至 2018 年 12 月），仅占全世界 832 个世卫组织协作中心的 5%，但东地中海区域国家却占全球人口的 10%左右。造成这种差异的原因可能反映出该区域用于卫生研究的公共资源有限。但是，这也可能突出表明，在东地中海区域建立有效协作中心的资源和机会仍有待开发。
