Project No. HWG_02_2025S Project Title Capacity Building in Managing Emerging and Re-emerging Infectious Diseases: Responding to Health Emergencies and Addressing Chronic Effect Project Status Project in Implementation Based on the success of capacity building projects implemented in 2023 and 2024, this project aims to further strengthen the technical cooperation mechanism among APEC economies. Participants including policy makers and experts from all member economies will be invited again to China where they can continue their discussion on managing emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases, addressing the challenge posed by the chronic effect of acute infections, and strengthening the emergency preparedness of their health systems. This project will offer APEC economies an opportunity to share their experiences and knowledge not only on COVID-19, but also other respiratory infections such as influenza, mycoplasma, and others that may have an impact on our health systems. The project, which is scheduled to be organized in July 2025, will include seminars, workshops, and roundtable discussions. The objective is to strengthen the capacity and resilience of health systems in preventing, controlling, treating emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases, mitigating respiratory infectious disease burden, and responding to healthcare emergencies. |
