Abstract

Abstract The Health Emergency Preparedness and Response Authority (HERA) was established by the European Commission in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic to improve EU preparedness and response to cross-border health threats. The HERA IT platform for intelligence gathering and threat assessment is being developed to support HERA's activities through collection of data from relevant sources at European and national level. In this regard the EU-HIP project is collaborating with HERA to map surveillance systems for health crisis preparedness and response in different European countries, focusing on how to ensure interoperability between these systems and HERA's IT platform for intelligence gathering and threat assessment. The methodology to be used will be based on best practice from previous assessments, incorporating assessment indicators relevant to health emergency preparedness and data flows. During the presentation, initial results from the first countries analyzed will be presented, covering the identified digital infrastructures and systems, stakeholder networks and pertinent legislative aspects for threat assessment and response.
