GLOBAL HEALTH SECURITY PARTNER ENGAGEMENT: EXPANDING EFFORTS AND STRATEGIES TO PROTECT AND IMPROVE PUBLIC HEALTH GLOBALLY

HEALTH SECURITY PARTNERS WILL STRENGTHEN NATIONAL AND SUBNATIONAL PUBLIC HEALTH SYSTEMS THROUGH IMPROVED SURVEILLANCE, LABORATORY CAPACITY, WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT, EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS AND RESPONSE. - THIS HEALTH SECURITY PARTNERS (HSP) PROPOSAL WILL STRENGTHEN GLOBAL HEALTH SECURITY BY SUPPORTING PARTNER COUNTRIES TO BUILD RESILIENT, SUSTAINABLE PUBLIC HEALTH SYSTEMS CAPABLE OF PREVENTING, DETECTING, AND RESPONDING TO INFECTIOUS DISEASE THREATS BEFORE THEY SPREAD INTERNATIONALLY. THE PROJECT ALIGNS WITH CDC'S MISSION TO PROTECT AMERICANS BY STRENGTHENING SURVEILLANCE, LABORATORY SYSTEMS, WORKFORCE CAPACITY, EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS, AND MULTISECTORAL COORDINATION GLOBALLY. INITIAL IMPLEMENTATION WILL FOCUS IN COUNTRIES IN SOUTHEAST ASIA, SPECIFICALLY CAMBODIA, INDONESIA, THE PHILIPPINES, THAILAND, AND VIETNAM, WITH THE FLEXIBILITY TO EXPAND TO ADDITIONAL PRIORITY COUNTRIES AS DIRECTED BY CDC. WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP WITH MINISTRIES OF HEALTH, CDC HEADQUARTERS AND COUNTRY OFFICES, AND NATIONAL AND REGIONAL STAKEHOLDERS, HSP WILL DELIVER INTEGRATED TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE, TRAINING, MENTORING, OPERATIONAL RESEARCH, AND SYSTEMS-STRENGTHENING ACTIVITIES THAT BUILD ON EXISTING NATIONAL CAPACITIES AND PROMOTE COUNTRY OWNERSHIP. KEY PROJECT ACTIVITIES INCLUDE: • STRENGTHENING SURVEILLANCE, HEALTH INFORMATION SYSTEMS, AND LABORATORY NETWORKS TO IMPROVE EARLY DETECTION AND REPORTING OF INFECTIOUS DISEASE THREATS. • EXPANDING WORKFORCE CAPACITY THROUGH COMPETENCY-BASED TRAINING, MENTORING, LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT, AND EMERGENCY RESPONSE PREPAREDNESS. • STRENGTHENING EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT, MULTISECTORAL COORDINATION, AND PUBLIC HEALTH SERVICE DELIVERY TO IMPROVE READINESS AND RESPONSE. • SUPPORTING IMPLEMENTATION SCIENCE, OPERATIONAL RESEARCH, AND CONTINUOUS QUALITY IMPROVEMENT TO STRENGTHEN EVIDENCE-BASED DECISION-MAKING. • PROVIDING FLEXIBLE TECHNICAL AND OPERATIONAL SUPPORT FOR CDC-REQUESTED RESPONSES TO EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASE THREATS. HSP'S IMPLEMENTATION APPROACH EMPHASIZES LOCALLY LED, SUSTAINABLE CAPACITY STRENGTHENING RATHER THAN CREATING PARALLEL SYSTEMS. ACTIVITIES WILL BE TAILORED COLLABORATIVELY WITH COUNTRY PARTNERS, BUILD UPON EXISTING GOVERNMENT STRUCTURES, AND INCORPORATE ROUTINE MONITORING, EVALUATION, AND ADAPTIVE MANAGEMENT TO ENSURE MEASURABLE RESULTS AND LONG-TERM INSTITUTIONAL CAPACITY. EXPECTED OUTCOMES INCLUDE: • STRONGER SURVEILLANCE, LABORATORY, AND EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS SYSTEMS. • IMPROVED DATA QUALITY, INTEROPERABILITY, AND PUBLIC HEALTH DECISION-MAKING. • EXPANDED PUBLIC HEALTH WORKFORCE CAPACITY AND LEADERSHIP. • STRONGER MULTISECTORAL COORDINATION AND COUNTRY OWNERSHIP OF GLOBAL HEALTH SECURITY PROGRAMS. • FASTER DETECTION, NOTIFICATION AND RESPONSE TO INFECTIOUS DISEASE THREATS THROUGH APPLICATION AND INSTITUTIONALIZATION OF THE 7-1-7 FRAMEWORK AND OTHER TIME-BOUND, EVIDENCE-BASED APPROACHES WITHIN RESILIENT, SUSTAINABLE PUBLIC HEALTH SYSTEMS. THROUGH THIS INTEGRATED, COUNTRY-LED APPROACH, HSP WILL HELP PARTNER COUNTRIES BUILD DURABLE PUBLIC HEALTH SYSTEMS THAT CAN INDEPENDENTLY PREVENT, DETECT, AND RESPOND TO EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASE THREATS, ULTIMATELY ADVANCING GLOBAL HEALTH SECURITY AND PROTECTING THE HEALTH AND ECONOMIC SECURITY OF THE UNITED STATES.

TO STRENGTHEN PARTNER CAPACITY TO CONDUCT AND SUPPORT MOLECULAR DIAGNOSTICS, MOLECULAR ANALYTICS, AND BIOINFORMATIC DATA SHARING FRAMEWORKS AMONG MULTISECTORAL PARTNERS ALONG WITH IMPROVED BIORISK MANAGEMENT, BIOSECURITY, AND BIOSAFETY PRACTICES.
