Infectious Disease Detection and Surveillance

USAID’s Infectious Disease Detection and Surveillance (IDDS) project was a 6-year project in more than 20 countries in Africa and Asia ​where there are significant gaps in health systems’ ability to detect, track, and rapidly respond to infectious diseases and ​drug-resistant infections that pose a major threat to public health and global health security. The project ended in May 2024.

IDDS was led by ICF and a consortium of organizations: FHI 360, PATH, Abt Associates, the African Society for Laboratory Medicine, the Association of Public Health Laboratories, Gryphon Scientific, the Mérieux Foundation, and Metabiota.
