EGHS supports Global Health Security Agenda (GHSA) goals through activities that strengthen regional and national capacity to prevent, detect and respond to public health threats. EGHS’s core priorities include strengthening national laboratory and surveillance systems, expanding the public health workforce, supporting effective emergency response operations, and increasing government capacity to implement the International Health Regulations (2005).
EGHS works in countries all over the world, including Burkina Faso, Cambodia, Ghana, Guinea, Haiti, India, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Kyrgyzstan, Myanmar, Nigeria, Senegal, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan and Zambia.
