I am a Medical Doctor with a degree of Master of Public Health. I work at World Health Organization at country level right now. So far I have obtained over 18 years of experiences in the public health of developing countries at national and international levels with various technical programs such as health emergency preparedness and response including pandemic influenza preparedness, tuberculosis, immunization and malaria, etc. WHO role,as a convener and leading health agency, is critical to ensure strengthening country capacities for health emergency preparedness and risk management focusing on health system strengthening. Our scope of work covers generation, translation and dissemination of valuable knowledge for policy formulation, setting norms and standards for program planning, implementation and monitoring, etc. This is particularly important with current global momentum and broader partnership approaches for health security matters, which certainly demands enhanced WHO leadership and technical roles with timely and quality assured technical deliverables at the countries.
