Browse the full catalog of 3057 health indicators published by the World Health Organization Global Health Observatory (WHO GHO). Each entry carries a stable indicator code (e.g. WHOSIS_000001 for life expectancy at birth, MDG_0000000007 for under-5 mortality) and a human-readable English name. Filter by theme (Sugra-derived from the indicator-code prefix heuristic: hiv, tb, ncd, tobacco, immunization, sdg, and more) or by free-text substring via q. Legacy See ... alias rows are flagged with is_alias=true so clients can filter them out when needed.
