Brief
The National Action Plan for Health Security translates Burundi's assessment findings into a prioritised, costed and time-bound set of actions across the IHR technical areas. This summary presents the plan's strategic priorities, the highest-impact activities for the current period, and how they align to the regional preparedness framework and the 7-1-7 target. It reflects Burundi's specific risk profile — recurrent cholera and measles outbreaks, cross-border population movement with drc and tanzania, and flood-related displacement in imbo plain — and identifies where regional technical assistance and cross-border coordination add the most value. The full plan sits alongside the country's contingency plans, risk assessments and readiness assessments on the country knowledge page.
