Abstract

Towards One Health Intelligence surveillance systems
The increase in global diseases and other health threats in recent decades has necessitated the importance of strengthening our surveillance systems towards early detection and monitoring of drivers. The recent COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the vulnerability of countries to such global health threats, which requires collective actions beyond individual organisations and countries (Agenda 2024, 2020). There was a global call to strengthen health surveillance systems (WHO, 2007; FAO, OIE and WHO, 2010), and countries deliberated to depart from traditional reactive surveillance to novel proactive approaches, including integration of the systems (Shuai et al., 2006; Wahl et al., 2012; Lwin et al., 2014).
