This Facilitator Guide addresses several shortcomings of service providers regarding the prevention, early detection and response to epidemics and epizootics. It can also serve as the resource for a number of health sciences courses taught at the secondary and university levels, and for on-the-job training of health care professionals, by adapting it as necessary to identified instructional needs.
This Guide consists of six sections subdivided into units. The sectons address the One Health approach to prevention, early detection and response to emerging infectious diseases and antimicrobial resistance phenomena. The Gender Analysis section recognizes the need for gender sensitive disease surveillance, control and response processes. It is a practical method to incorporate a gender perspective into emerging disease programs through gender analysis tools that recognize and reveal how sex and gender affect infectious disease transmission, prevention and outcomes.
