- **Purpose of the Consultancy**

To analyze the health security data within the countries across the Eastern Mediterranean Region using various statistical methods to inform recommendations and strategic directions for regional and global health security, as well as to document the countries’ experiences and case studies to create a legacy for health security capacities including those for mass gathering events.
- **Background**

The WHO Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMR) is affected by multi-disease outbreaks and other health emergencies amid ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted to excessive morbidity, mortality, and socioeconomic disruptions. The outbreaks also threaten national, regional and global health security. Many of these emergencies can be prevented or their impact can be significantly reduced by proactively identifying and addressing the underlying determinants and core capacity gaps. To support member states, the Country Preparedness and International Health Regulations (CPI) Programme of the WHO Health Emergencies (WHE) Programme support all-hazard approach to developing national action plans for health security and emergencies, and to build International Health Regulations (IHR, 2005) core capacities which eventually protects health security at various levels.

Support for strengthening health emergency preparedness is necessarily specific to context to mitigate the public health impact of epidemics, and pandemics. The EMR countries develop core capacities according to IHR to protect the national, regional and global health security. Importantly, the countries in the EMR host some of the world’s largest Mass Gatherings (MGs). Many countries in the region organize annual MG of different sizes and nature, each with their own specific risks. The decision to organize MG need to be informed by risk-assessment evidence and country capacity for which proper pre-planning is needed to mitigate the impact of not only COVID-19 transmission but also other hazards associated with the event. Such assessments should be based on a risk/benefit approach considering the intensity of transmission, the health system’s capacity to respond, other contextual considerations and the overall strategic approach to responding to epidemics and pandemics in each specific setting. There are limited documented evidence and information from low-and middle-income countries to inform the contextual variation in regional and global health security planning.

Thus, the consultant is expected to support in triangulated analysis of health security related and documenting the countries’ experience and case studies including mass gathering legacy to inform evidence-based strategic directions for health security.
