Public Health Surveillance Is Changing

Public health surveillance has always depended on the ability to collect reliable information, recognise patterns, communicate risk, and support timely decisions. Artificial intelligence is introducing new possibilities. AI-supported tools can help professionals analyse large volumes of health data, identify unusual patterns, strengthen early-warning systems, and support faster responses to emerging threats. But technology alone does not protect communities. Effective surveillance still requires accurate data, trained professionals, ethical leadership, institutional accountability, and public trust. This webinar will examine both sides of the conversation: what AI can contribute to public health surveillance and what responsible implementation requires from professionals, institutions, and health systems.

This Webinar Is Relevant to You If You Are:

A public health student or graduate. An early-career or experienced public health professional. An epidemiologist or surveillance professional. A healthcare or community health worker. A researcher, lecturer, or academic leader. A digital-health or health-data professional. An NGO, nonprofit, or development-sector professional. An emergency-preparedness or outbreak-response professional. A government or institutional stakeholder. Interested in the responsible use of AI in health systems.
