National Technical Guidelines for Integrated Disease Surveillance and Response in Somalia


Introduction and background

Integrated Disease Surveillance and Response (IDSR) is a comprehensive set of evidence-based strategies for strengthening national communicable disease surveillance and response systems for all priority conditions at all levels (community, facility, district, region, state and federal) of the health system.

IDSR seeks to improve integration and coordination when conducting surveillance and response activities.

In this context, integration means that the same structures, processes, tools and human resources are used to conduct similar surveillance and response functions for all priority conditions at all levels of the health system.
