The goal of this study is to explore
multi-sectoral collaboration in Ethiopia, in the context of
strengthening public health capacities under the Global Health
Security Agenda (GHSA). As GHSA implementation has progressed, it
is unknown how collaboration across sectors is occurring in
Ethiopia, and how it may be similar or different across the
technical areas of GHSA. The information collected in this study
will be used by CDC technical experts to improve their
collaboration efforts, and can also be utilized by partner nations
and stakeholders to explore ways to enhance their own partnerships
for improving public health systems and overall global health
security.
