IHR Core Capacities

This assessment was a WHO-led IHR  (2005) core capacity assessment using the IHR JEE tool. An international, multisectoral team of experts (nominated by the JEE Secretariat) and observers from Eritrea and South Africa participated in the week-long assessment which took place from 5 to 9 September 2016, in Monrovia Liberia. In the WHO African Region, Liberia is the fourth country to volunteer for the JEE, after the United Republic of Tanzania, Ethiopia and Mozambique. Importantly, Liberia is the first country in West Africa to undergo the JEE and also the first country where the WHO Regional Office for Africa was the sole organizer of the JEE and also the team lead.
