Joint external evaluation of the International Health Regulations (2005) core capacities of Bangladesh
Eight years after completing its first Joint External Evaluation (JEE) in 2016, Bangladesh remains at the forefront of demonstrating strong leadership in International Health Regulations (2005) (IHR (2005)) competencies and pandemic preparedness. Having completed its second JEE with the updated Version 3 tool, the country continues to strengthen its capacity through a multisectoral One Health approach, which emphasizes collaboration across the human, animal and environmental health sectors. This JEE mission represents the 157th globally, and Bangladesh is one of 19 countries to have completed a second evaluation. Noteworthy achievements include Bangladesh's exceptional immunization programme, receiving top scores in all indicators, as well as its proactive response to the COVID-19 pandemic, during which the country successfully vaccinated over 83% of its population. The use of veterinary laboratories for surge testing during the pandemic serves as an excellent example of the One Health approach in action, leading to more efficient outcomes.
Getting Skills Right Equipping Health Workers with the Right Skills Skills Anticipation in the Health Workforce

National tuberculosis prevalence surveys 2007-2016
Between 2007 and the end of 2016, 24 countries implemented a total of 25 national tuberculosis prevalence surveys using methods recommended by WHO. The 25 surveys consisted of 13 in Asia and 12 in Africa. Collectively, survey findings have informed the policies, plans and programmatic actions needed to address gaps in TB diagnosis and treatment and to reduce the burden of TB disease. Finally, the 24 countries have a robust baseline for assessing progress towards new global targets set in the UN Sustainable Development Goals (2016–2030) and WHO’s End TB Strategy (2016–2035). The methods, results, successes achieved, challenges faced and lessons learned from the 25 surveys were comprehensively documented in the book. We viewed such a product as a global public good, that should be available to all those with an interest in and commitment to using survey findings, now and in the future e.g. academics, donors, public health officers and national TB programmes. As with implementation of the 25 surveys themselves, the book is the result of a major global, regional and national collaborative and collective effort, with more than 450 contributors from all around the world.
Digital Contact Tracing for Pandemic Response
As nations race to hone contact-tracing efforts, the world's experts consider strategies for maximum transparency and impact. As public health professionals around the world work tirelessly to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, it is clear that traditional methods of contact tracing need to be augmented in order to help address a public health crisis of unprecedented scope. Innovators worldwide are racing to develop and implement novel public-facing technology solutions, including digital contact tracing technology.
