Over four days, workshop participants collaboratively identified opportunities to improve interagency cooperation, enhance the institutional framework, and strengthen capacity for public health emergency prevention and response in Malawi. The event included discussion on broad technical topics in water, sanitation and hygiene, preventive medicine, and societal issues. A one-day emergency response table top exercise allowed participants to work through a possible scenario and discover strengths and weaknesses of current plans. Findings and recommendations from the table top exercise focused on enhancing cooperation between civilian and military organizations in Malawi.
