Global Emergency Response and Recovery Partner Engagement: Expanding Efforts and Strategies to Improve Rapid Response to Public Health Emergencies Globally
The Center for Humanitarian Health at the Johns Hopkins University (JHU) will work with a wide range of international, regional, national and local partners across multiple disciplines to prepare for and rapidly respond to public health emergencies in an agile, context-appropriate, scalable and sustainable manner. We propose a project that will align with the global health security agenda (GHSA) and International Health Regulations (IHR) and focus on: • Training and building the capacity of CDC-chosen partners using operational training modules based on country needs assessments; • Deploying rapid response support teams that will conduct just-in-time training, deliver information management strategies, and provide technical guidance, support and monitoring of compliance; and • Applying a Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) approach to evaluate trainings (all-hazards and hazard-specific) and rapid response support.
