..
- **Purpose of the Consultancy**

To support countries in the Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMR) to build and enhance their capacities on travel health and to develop roadmap on establishing/enhancing travel health programs in countries.
- **Background**

The mission of WHO's Health Emergencies Program is to build the capacity of Member States to manage health emergency risks and, when national capacities are overwhelmed, to lead and coordinate the international health response to contain outbreaks and to provide effective relief and recovery to affected populations.

As the world grows more interconnected, it is easier for people to travel from one location to another, which increases the likelihood of disease transmission. As a result of rapid and severe changes in altitude, humidity, and temperature, as well as exposure to a variety of infectious diseases, international travel can pose numerous health concerns including infectious disease transmission. In areas with poor hygiene and sanitation and fragile health systems, more severe health hazards may be anticipated. Moreover, accidents are a common source of morbidity and mortality among travelers. Therefore, travel health is gaining significant importance to identify the health risks associated with travel, protect the travelers’ health, and minimize the risks of accident and of acquiring disease and prevent the cross-border and international spread of disease. The risk of cross-border spread of disease are especially high in areas where there are weak health systems and weak surveillance systems, making it difficult to detect and respond to emerging infectious diseases. As such, it is important for travelers to be aware of the risks associated with travel and the potential for the spread of disease.

The objective of this consultancy is providing technical support to the Eastern Mediterranean Region in areas of travel health and to develop policy brief, clear roadmap and deliver webinar on travel health to EMR countries.
