Health Emergencies Program

The Health Emergencies Program (HEP) is an initiative by the World Health Organization (WHO) aimed at improving global readiness and response to health crises, like disease outbreaks and natural disasters. It focuses on preparing health systems, coordinating international responses, and ensuring that countries can quickly address health emergencies. By providing resources, technical support, and guidance, the program helps protect communities worldwide from threats to public health, aiming to save lives and mitigate the impact of emergencies on health and well-being.
