EMERGING INFECTIOUS DISEASES PROGRAM (EIDP)
The Emerging Infectious Disease Program is one of MUWRP’s signature programs implemented since 2007. The program’s mission is to mitigate, detect, and robustly respond to emerging and re-emerging infectious disease threats through innovation, quality research, health systems strengthening, and surveillance.
EIDP directly contributes to strengthening Uganda’s global health security and public health emergency operations response through sharing critical surveillance information with the Ministry of Health (MoH), Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Industry and Fisheries (MAAIF), and other key stakeholders, and building health facility-based surveillance capacity for antimicrobial resistance, and human and animal diseases. EIDP activities are funded by the US Department of Defence (DoD)’s Global Emerging Infections Surveillance Section (GEIS), the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), Defence Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), and the Makerere University Research and Innovation Fund (Mak-RIF).
