Honoured to have H.E. Minister Dr Karina Rando, Dra. Karina Rando , Minister of Public Health of Uruguay MSP - Uruguay join us at this evening’s #CollaborativeSurveillance event
Truly inspired by the country’s collaboration & data-sharing across their institutions to drive decisions.
#CollaborativeSurvillance doesn’t mean we start from scratch!
Instead, it means we connect, strengthen, and innovate our surveillance approaches so collectively we are better prepared for future health emergencies.
Transforming disease surveillance requires reimagining how we collaborate!
Together, let's deepen & expand our collaborations, engage actors in & beyond health, and embrace innovation & systems thinking as we build an enabling environment for #CollaborativeSurvillance .
Countries are in the driver’s seat for #CollaborativeSurveillance implementation and there is no one-size-fits-all solution!
World Health Organization (WHO) commits to support national surveillance systems & decision-making by building capacities, empowering #NPHAs , & promoting sustainable financing.
High quality research is key to #CollaborativeSurveillance & informed decision-making
