The establishment of robust water surveillance capabilities on global, regional, and local scales is essential for effectively modelling public health diseases, enhancing epidemic intelligence, and conducting pathogen surveillance. The primary objective of the global consortium is to create an international sentinel system for the early detection, prevention, and real-time monitoring of epidemic threats and outbreaks.
This network will play a pivotal role in supporting global public health decision-making and bolstering pandemic preparedness efforts. This event presents an unparalleled opportunity to engage in in-depth discussions about the key aspects of wastewater surveillance and drive forward the development of the global consortium. We firmly believe that every voice matters in this endeavour, and these two days will provide a platform for meaningful and engaging discussions.
