Description
This cooperative agreement, administered by the CDC’s Global Health Center, aims to expand global health security in Ethiopia by partnering with local organizations and government agencies. The program supports the Government of Ethiopia (GOE) in strengthening its capacity to prevent, detect, and respond to priority diseases, aligning with International Health Regulation (IHR) targets and the Global Health Security Agenda. Focus areas include laboratory systems, workforce development, disease surveillance, emergency response, antimicrobial resistance, immunization, and health information system strengthening.
