According to the ECDC Strategic Multi-annual Programme, for the period 2010-2013, ECDC should consolidate its Public Health Functions (surveillance, scientific advice, preparedness and response, health communication) while at the same time reinforce and give more visibility to the Disease Specific work. The adoption of longterm strategies for the Disease Specific Programmes by the Management Board in November 2009 was part of this process. Partnerships (including External Relations and Country Relations) are at the core of ECDC missions. ECDC will work on further improving its cooperation with the EU institutions, Member States, other public health partners and external partners, through the streamlining of its cooperation principles, structures and practices. The nomination of a one Competent Body and a National Coordinator per country will facilitate this process. In 2012 ECDC will particularly focus its efforts on cross-cutting issues, such as measles elimination, health inequalities/migrant health, strengthening microbiology laboratory capacity in Europe, assessment tool for the EU Candidate Countries.
