Improving Preparedness and Response to Global Public Health Emergencies through Capacity Building
Johns Hopkins University will work with a wide range of international, regional, national and local partners across multiple disciplines to prepare for and rapidly respond to PHEICs in an agile, context-appropriate, scalable and sustainable manner. In alignment with the GHSA and International Health Regulations (IHR), we will focus on • training and building the capacity of CDC-chosen partners using operational training modules based on capacity-building needs assessments; • deploying rapid response support teams (RRSTs) that will conduct just-in-time training, develop 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 ad hazard-specific ) and rapid response support.
