RESPONSIBILITIES
Purpose of consultancy To contribute to the development of global surveillance standards for data collection and sharing with a focus on digitalization.Background Surveillance systems in public health serve a wide array of objectives, encompassing disease monitoring, early detection, contact tracing, and epidemiological assessment. This versatility together with other factors has contributed to lack of data integration and harmonization at country, regional, and global levels and poses challenges such as duplicated data collection efforts, parallel reporting, inconsistencies and lack of data quality and detail. Underlying these issues is the absence of standardized terminologies and standards that could integrate or harmonize surveillance systems. Within the strategy of Collaborative Surveillance, the WHO Surveillance Systems Department (WSE/SRV) aims to develop a comprehensive suite of norms and standards for public health surveillance. Our objective is to enhance quality, timeliness, granularity of surveillance systems on one hand and collaboration, interoperability, and synergy between them on the other hand, to generate better insights for better public health decision-making. Deliverables Deliverable 1: A comprehensive report outlining the commonalities, differences, and gaps within and across 5 selected disease surveillance guidelines. Expected by: July 2024 Deliverables 2: Report detailing the adoption and representation of WHO surveillance data standards across commonly used systems and tools for the 5 selected diseases. Expected by: August 2024 Deliverables 3: Documentation of key surveillance components to be standardized and/or adapted for digitalization based on the SMART guidelines approach. Expected by: September 2024 Deliverables 4: Development of technical reports, digital adaptation kits and scientific manuscripts. Expected by: December 2024
