Strengthening Surveillance Systems Across Communit

By Zachery Onyango | Project Leader

Strengthening Surveillance Systems Across Communities

A critical part of stopping Ebola is ensuring that no suspected case goes unnoticed. Surveillance systems act as the eyes and ears of the response, allowing health teams to detect and act on potential infections before they spread further.

With your support, we are strengthening surveillance efforts across affected and high-risk communities. This includes training local health workers and volunteers to recognize early symptoms, improving reporting channels, and ensuring rapid follow-up on alerts. We are also supporting coordination between community-level actors and national response teams.

These improvements are helping close gaps where the virus could otherwise spread undetected. Strong surveillance does not just respond to outbreaks—it prevents them from escalating.

Your support is making it possible to stay one step ahead of Ebola and protect entire communities.
