Strengthening Global Mechanisms and Capacities for Responding to Deliberate Use of Biological Agents – Phase 1

This program supported multiple activities to strengthen global mechanisms and capabilities to respond to the use of disease as a weapon, including: support to the World Health Organization (WHO) to strengthen internal readiness to respond to deliberate biological outbreaks and enhance coordination between health and security sectors; and collaborate between major international organizations that would have roles in responding to a biological attack to identify challenges and develop recommendations and an interagency cooperation framework for enhanced response preparedness and coordination.
