Health Security Partners at EpiNet Fiji as New PPHSN Allied Member
As a new Allied Member of Pacific Public Health Surveillance Network (PPHSN), Health Security Partners is proud to support and engage alongside regional leaders at last month’s EpiNet Technical Working Group in Nadi, Fiji.
Our team had the privilege of participating in this important convening, where PPHSN brought together country representatives and technical partners to strengthen how EpiNet operates today—and how it will evolve for the future.
EpiNet represents the strength of Pacific collaboration: a multidisciplinary network of health professionals working on the frontlines of disease surveillance, outbreak response, and health emergency preparedness. What stood out most was the shared commitment to a model where “the Pacific helps the Pacific”—ensuring that when countries need surge support, a coordinated regional mechanism is ready.
With rising threats like dengue, measles, and emerging diseases, strengthening EpiNet is not just timely—it is essential. A more coordinated and resourced network means faster outbreak response, stronger national systems, and better protection for communities across the region.
For Health Security Partners, this work also reinforces a critical truth: strengthening health security abroad helps make America safer, stronger, and more prosperous at home. By supporting early detection and rapid response in the Pacific, we reduce the risk of cross-border threats, strengthen trusted partnerships, and contribute to global stability that benefits us all.
We are honored to contribute as a partner in this effort and look forward to supporting the next phase of EpiNet’s growth alongside our Pacific colleagues.
