Abstract
Global surveillance systems are crucial for early detection, assessment and response to public health threats. The National
Health and Medical Research Council Centre for Research Excellence, Integrated Systems for Epidemic Response is developing a
new epidemic observatory, Epi-watch. Epi-watch monitors and
provides critical analysis of global outbreaks and epidemics of public health significance for use by policy makers, government and
other stakeholders. To inform further development of Epi-watch,
we implemented a stakeholder survey to understand the global
outbreak surveillance needs of stakeholders involved in epidemic
response and surveillance in the Asia-Pacific region.
