In themajority of cases data on MDG progress is taken from th UNStatistics Division.The Scorecard shows results using 5 Results Areas (see below) to tellthe story of IHP+ implementation in a logical flow: from the nationalhealth plan to monitoring and evaluation of that plan.Where they are used, rating symbols illustrate whether thegovernment has achieved , is working towards , or hasn’t

made progress against agreed targets.Progress against the Millennium Development Goals is provided forcontextual purposes.
