The Toolkit summarizes several aspects of health workforce planning in a practical and user-friendly way, in addition governs the attention of the users to useful materials and action points. The Toolkit is a practical collection of self-evaluation tools that supports the daily activities of planning. The utilization of the Toolkit enables environment screening in health workforce planning and identification of weaknesses and areas of development.
