Description
This NOFO seeks to build and sustain a more resilient public health system in Ghana capable of identifying, responding to and mitigating public health threats. CDC, through this NOFO, will continue to leverage and complement the strengths and resources of multi-sectoral and multilateral partners in Ghana to build and improve country capacity and leadership in the prevention, early detection and response to infectious disease threats. The NOFO builds upon laboratory, surveillance, emergency response, and workforce development activities previously funded by CDC to enhance Global Health Security. In addition, this NOFO has expanded to include support for surveillance and laboratory capacity strengthening in border districts and sequencing and bioinformatics. This NOFO"s outcomes aim to improve prevention of avoidable epidemics and improve early detection of disease threats and respond rapidly and effective to public health threats.
