Pacific Public Health Surveillance Network
The Pacific Public Health Surveillance Network (PPHSN) is a collaborative effort among Pacific Island countries and territories to monitor and share health information. It helps detect, track, and respond to infectious diseases and health threats promptly. By pooling data and resources, the network improves regional capacity to prevent outbreaks, inform public health decisions, and promote healthier communities. Essentially, it functions as a regional health watch system, ensuring timely communication and coordinated action across Pacific nations to protect public health.
