SPAR, the annual report every State Party must file.

The State Party Self-Assessment Annual Reporting tool (SPAR) is the mandatory component of the IHR Monitoring and Evaluation Framework. Each year, States Parties report on their core capacities to the World Health Assembly, usually through WHO’s e-SPAR platform.

SPAR with OneIHR

A year-round process, not a last-minute form.

STEP 01

Assign owners

Each indicator gets a sector owner and a reviewer.

STEP 02

Collect evidence continuously

Evidence is attached as it is produced, with AI flagging gaps.

STEP 03

Validate scores

Multisectoral review confirms each level against its evidence.

STEP 04

Submit with confidence

A complete, traceable report is ready for the Focal Point to submit.

POWERED BY ONEIHR AGENTS

OneIHR agents map this framework’s indicators to your national evidence, flag gaps as they appear and draft the narrative for review — officials approve every output before it is used.

Questions, answered.

Is SPAR mandatory?

Yes. Annual reporting to the World Health Assembly is an obligation under the IHR, and SPAR is the tool used to fulfil it.

How are SPAR indicators scored?

Each indicator is scored on five levels describing progress from limited to sustainable capacity. Capacity scores combine into an overall average.

Where can I see published SPAR results?

WHO publishes States Parties’ SPAR data through its e-SPAR public platform.

THE PROBLEM

IHR compliance still runs on spreadsheets and email.

Evidence for 15 SPAR capacities and 19 JEE technical areas sits across dozens of agencies. Reports are assembled once a year, under pressure, by a handful of people. Findings from evaluations and exercises go untracked. The 2024 amendments add new obligations on top.
