The setting up of the Public Health Emergency Operation Centre IT infrastructure

This compendium, prepared by the Division for Public Institutions and Digital Government (DPIDG) of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA), aims to capture emerging trends in digital responses of UN Member States against the COVID-19 pandemic along with other digital government initiatives and provide a preliminary analysis of their main features. These cases are shared for exchange of information so that Member States can learn from each other and possibly create new partnerships.

The centre is composed of key professionals from the Department of Health which is at the head of coordinating any emergency operation related to COVID-19. Hence the use of a robust and well connected IT infrastructure will ensure that they can get information in a timely manner as well as easy dissemination of important messages with minimum delay.
