International organisation

World Health Organization

The UN's health agency, and a membership broader than the UN's own: states coordinate on disease through it that meet nowhere else.

The two counts differ. World Health Organization publishes 194 members; 191 resolved against the 193 states this site has checked. Sometimes that is a disagreement about what counts as a member state — a non-UN state, a territory, a suspended member — and sometimes the compiled source lacks a current statement for a real one. Either way the gap is shown rather than smoothed over, because a table that quietly shows one number cannot be checked against the other.

The WHO counts 194 member states: every UN member state plus the Cook Islands and Niue, which are not UN members and so do not appear in the table below.

Member states

Ordered by accession. A state with no recorded date is listed last rather than given one.

A joining date is the one the source records, which may be the day a treaty was signed or the day it took effect. States that joined together can therefore differ by months here.
