The UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the WHO Health Workforce 2030 <... have drawn attention to the importance of HRH for achieving policy priorities such as universal health coverage (UHC).

We aimed to use comparable and standardised data sources to estimate HRH densities globally, and to examine the relationship between a subset of HRH cadres and UHC effective coverage performance.
