To support countries in strengthening and maintaining their capacities for ensuring rapid detection, verification and response to public health risks, WHO develops and provides tools, guidance and training. The goal of country implementation is to limit the spread of health risks to neighbouring countries and to prevent unwarranted travel and trade restrictions.

Respond: Respond to public health risks and emergencies.Assess and report: Use the decision instrument in Annex 2 of the IHR to assess public health event and report to WHO through their National IHR Focal Point those that may constitute a public health emergency of international concern.Detect: Make sure surveillance systems can detect acute public health events in timely matter.The IHR require that all countries have the ability to do the following: WHO plays the coordinating role in IHR implementation and, together with its partners, helps countries to build capacities. Governments are responsible, including all of their sectors, ministries, levels, officials and personnel for implementing IHR at the national level. The responsibility for implementing the IHR rests upon all States Parties that are bound by the Regulations and on WHO. Additional provisions address the areas of international travel and transport such as the health documents required for international traffic.įinally, the IHR introduce important safeguards to protect the rights of travellers and other persons in relation to the treatment of personal data, informed consent and non-discrimination in the application of health measures under the Regulations. The Regulations also outline the criteria to determine whether or not a particular event constitutes a “public health emergency of international concern”.Īt the same time, the IHR require countries to designate a National IHR Focal Point for communications with WHO, to establish and maintain core capacities for surveillance and response, including at designated points of entry. They create rights and obligations for countries, including the requirement to report public health events. The IHR grew out of the response to deadly epidemics that once overran Europe. The IHR are an instrument of international law that is legally-binding on 196 countries, including the 194 WHO Member States. Because the guidance on the methods of compliance presented in this AC are not mandatory, the terms "shall" and "must" when used herein, apply only to an applicant that chooses to follow a particular method without deviation.While disease outbreaks and other acute public health risks are often unpredictable and require a range of responses, the International Health Regulations (2005) (IHR) provide an overarching legal framework that defines countries’ rights and obligations in handling public health events and emergencies that have the potential to cross borders. The applicant may elect to follow alternate methods provided that these methods are also found by the FAA to be an acceptable means of complying with the requirements of part 25. As with all AC material, it is not mandatory and does not constitute a regulation.
