The Meeting Targets and Maintaining Epidemic Control (EpiC) project is an eight-year (2019–2027) global health initiative funded by the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). EpiC operates in more than 60 countries, addressing key public health challenges such as HIV/AIDS, pandemic preparedness, and global health security.
In Papua New Guinea (PNG), EpiC has expanded its efforts to include Global Health Security (GHS) activities since 2023, focusing on strengthening the country’s health systems to prevent, detect, and respond to infectious diseases, with an emphasis on integrating One Health approaches. This approach recognizes the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health in addressing health threats. The EpiC GHS project in PNG is working closely with government and stakeholders across the health, veterinary, and environmental sectors to build the International Health Regulations (IHR) core capacities needed to effectively manage emerging infectious diseases and other health threats.
