Introduction:

The Global Health Security Agenda (GHSA) was launched in February 2014 by the US government in partnership with more than 25 other governments, the World Health Organization (WHO), the World Organisation for Animal Health, and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. The GHSA aims to accelerate progress toward a world prepared to counter major infectious disease threats and to focus greater political attention on the need to promote global health security as an international priority.
