ECDC country visit to Moldova to discuss surveillance of communicable diseases
ECDC cooperates with countries under the EU enlargement policy to improve their infectious disease prevention and control systems and public health workforce to prepare them for their future participation in ECDC’s work.
Under this policy, ECDC has been implementing technical cooperation activities with EU candidate countries and potential candidates, i.e. the Western Balkans and Türkiye aiming, inter alia, to support capacities to implement EU legislation on communicable diseases.
Upon request from the national public health authorities of Moldova, as a new EU candidate country, ECDC conducted a technical visit to the country in April 2025 with similar scope, objectives, and methodology as for visits to the Western Balkans and Türkiye. The agenda for the visit was developed jointly with the National Public Health Agency of the Republic of Moldova. During the visit, findings for all areas of surveillance were discussed and the assessment tool was filled out in collaboration with colleagues from the country.
The ECDC country visit to Moldova is part of the EU Initiative on Health Security work package on progressive integration of the partner countries in the work of ECDC.
