Morocco, 2019Why and how are causes of death monitored?
Understanding the reasons why people die helps with the understanding of how they lived, in order to improve health services and reduce preventable deaths in every country, responding effectively to changing circumstances. Annual monitoring of causes
of death allows countries to address their causes and adapt health systems to react effectively.
The leading causes of death are statistical estimates based on available data. These estimates are produced using data from multiple sources, including national vital registration data, latest estimates from WHO technical programmes, United
Nations partners and inter-agency groups, as well as the Global Burden of Disease and other scientific studies. Before publishing, they are reviewed by WHO Member States through consultation with national focal points and WHO country and regional
offices.
The top ten causes of death are statistical estimates based on available data. Death registration data is unavailable or unusable for Morocco due to quality issues. Estimates of mortality by cause should be interpreted with caution.
These estimates may be used for priority setting, however, they are not likely to be informative for policy evaluation or comparisons among countries.

Morocco, 2018 - 2025What are the triple billion targets?
The WHO Triple Billion targets measure impact on people's health to ensure that more people are enjoying better health and wellbeing, are benefitting from Universal Health Coverage (UHC) and are better protected from health emergencies.
The estimates are underpinned by 46 outcome indicators. They include 39 Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) indicators and seven non-SDG indicators. These offer a flexible approach to each of the Triple Billion targets, allowing countries to prioritize certain indicators based on their national health strategy, ensuring the Triple Billion strategy remains relevant for all Member States and their unique health challenges.
