许多非洲国家缺乏卫生工作者。作为回应，2012年，世卫组织非洲区域卫生部长核准了《2012至2025年扩大卫生工作人员队伍区域路线图》。路线图的一个重要里程碑是到2014年制定国家战略计划。必须评估各国制定的战略计划在多大程度上符合世卫组织路线图。我们审查了撒哈拉以南非洲国家2015年卫生人力资源战略计划，并评估了这些计划在多大程度上考虑了世卫组织非洲区域卫生人力资源路线图。向47个会员国发出了一份调查表，要求提供关于卫生政策和计划人力资源的数据，并对43个国家的答复进行了分析。只有72%的国家制定了实现卫生保健目标的国家行动计划。这没有达到世卫组织非洲区域办事处路线图的2015年目标。现有的计划涉及路线图的六个领域。尽管各国做出了所有努力，但仍需要进一步支持，以全面落实六个战略领域，维持全民健康覆盖所需的卫生工作者
Many African countries have a shortage of health workers. As a response, in 2012, the Ministers of Health in the WHO African Region endorsed a Regional Road Map for Scaling Up the Health Workforce from 2012 to 2025. One of the key milestones of the roadmap was the development of national strategic plans by 2014. It is important to assess the extent to which the strategic plans that countries developed conformed with the WHO Roadmap. We examine the strategic plans for human resource for health (HRH) of sub-Saharan African countries in 2015 and assess the extent to which they take into consideration the WHO African Region's Roadmap for HRH. A questionnaire seeking data on human resources for health policies and plans was sent to 47 Member States and the responses from 43 countries that returned the questionnaires were analysed. Only 72% had a national plan of action for attaining the HRH target. This did not meet the 2015 target for the WHO, Regional Office for Africa's Roadmap. The plans that were available addressed the six areas of the roadmap. Despite all their efforts, countries will need further support to comprehensively implement the six strategic areas to maintain the health workers required for universal health coverage
