The OneHealth Tool is a model to be used for supporting national strategic health planning in low- and middle-income countries. The tool facilitates an assessment of resource needs associated with key strategic activities and their associated costs, with a focus on integrated planning and strengthening health systems.

This model seeks to leverage the most useful components of the different tools that currently exist and is designed in a modular fashion allowing for program specific costing as well as health system component costing. The development of the tool is overseen by an inter-agency group consisting of experts from UN agencies and development institutions (the IAWG-Costing).
