Divison of Public Health Systems and Workforce Development. 2009 Annual Report

摘要

Our vision is that countries throughout the world have effective and equitable public health systems to protect communities and enable people to live healthy and productive lives. Working with Ministries of Health (MOHs) and public health partners, we are committed to strengthening public health systems and developing the workforce using solid science and innovative programs. We aim to build sustainable capacity that meets our partners national priorities. We also believe that strong public health systems globally are needed to improve and protect the public's health and to respond effectively to the ever-changing and increasing global public health challenges. We are committed to effectively collaborate with our public health partners and to respect the diversity of global public health practices, resources, and experiences. Using training programs such as the Field Epidemiology Training Program (FETP), the Field Epidemiology and Laboratory Training Program (FELTP), the Sustainable Management Development Program (SMDP), Data for Decision Making, and other programs, we help MOHs around the world build strong, effective, sustainable programs and capacity to improve public health systems on a local, regional, and national level.
