Public health emergencies are growing more complex, making timely, data-driven responses more critical than ever. To meet this challenge, EPHI is strengthening its Public Health Emergency Management (PHEM) system under its PHEM Center of Excellence (PHEM-COE) initiative through digital transformation efforts, including ePHEM, DHIS2, and other priority digital platforms.
