December 27, 2023
International Day for Epidemic Preparedness

As the world marks the International Day for Epidemic Preparedness on December 27, the focus intensifies on the crucial role of readiness in facing public health challenges. The Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMR), having navigated through armed conflicts, natural disasters, and political instability, has encountered substantial public health crises. These experiences emphasize the need for robust epidemic preparedness, a goal that EMPHNET is committed to achieving through its various initiatives, employing expertise from its Public Health Emergency Management Center (PHEMC).

 

The COVID-19 pandemic has starkly highlighted the importance of epidemic preparedness. In the EMR, where unique challenges compound public health vulnerabilities, EMPHNET's efforts in capacity building, response, and technical support are more significant than ever. The role of Field Epidemiology Training Programs (FETP) residents and graduates and Rapid Response Teams (RRTs) has proven to be crucial in empowering public health professionals to effectively manage and mitigate health emergencies.

 

However, EMPHNET's role extends beyond building countries’ capacities, as it is pivotal in coordinating comprehensive efforts with relevant partners, offering coordinated direction among various stakeholders across different relevant sectors, and ensuring alignment with national health policies. This collaborative approach is crucial in enhancing emergency response efforts that are effective and specifically catered to the varying needs of each country in the region.

 

The key messages from the most recent "Political Declaration of the United Nations General Assembly High-level Meeting on Pandemic Prevention, Preparedness, and Response" resonate deeply with EMPHNET's mission, vision, and objectives. These include the need for global solidarity, equitable access to healthcare resources, and the strengthening of local capacities to handle health emergencies among many others. Our strategies align with these global principles, aiming to build resilient health systems in the EMR.

 

Epidemic preparedness is not solely a governmental or organizational responsibility; it is also a societal imperative. Public awareness and community engagement are pivotal in fostering a culture of readiness. EMPHNET strives to make the general public more aware of the importance of preparedness by encouraging active participation in this crucial endeavor. This day serves as a reminder of the ongoing challenges and the vital importance of being prepared. It’s a call to action for all stakeholders in the region to unite in bolstering defenses against future public health threats.
