Report of the Expert Group Report on ‘Future Pandemic Preparedness – A Framework for Action

NITI AYOG, 2024
 NITI Aayog constituted an Expert Group to prepare a Framework for Action for Future Pandemic Preparedness and Emergency Response. The Terms of Reference for the group were to examine how COVID-19 was managed at the national and global levels, pick up the key learnings both from the success stories and challenges faced, and assess the key gaps which need to be addressed to help us prepare and respond more efficiently and effectively in any future public health crisis.

This report provides an action plan for a 100-day response to any outbreak or pandemic. It outlines the detailed roadmap for preparedness and implementation, indicating the steps on how the outbreak can be tracked, tested, treated and managed through a well-developed framework. It suggests a structure that integrates and strengthens all existing components and builds the required components to deliver the outputs that meet the targets of a 100-day response mission.

The recommendations of the Pandemic Preparedness and Emergency Response Framework (PPER) are in four pillars:

Governance, Legislation, Finance and Management
Data Management, Surveillance and Early Predictive Warning, Forecasting and Modelling,
Research and Innovation, Manufacturing, Infrastructure, Capacity building/Skilling
Partnership, Community engagement including risk communication, Private sector partnerships, and international collaborations

The expert group in the report has provided a blueprint for the country to prepare for any future public health emergency or pandemic and have a rapid response system. From examining the lessons learned and challenges faced during the COVID-19 pandemic to recommendations and a roadmap for governance and management of public health emergencies in the future, this report is a starting point for the country’s pandemic preparedness and prevention efforts.
