03The health security dialogue

Making the amended Regulations work across ministries.

The 2024 amendments to the International Health Regulations, in force since September 2025 for most States Parties, ask each state to designate a National IHR Authority. Dialogues on this community are designed to help states work through what that means across government: who coordinates, how border, transport, agriculture and finance ministries take part, and how decisions in a pandemic emergency are made and communicated. The community addresses capacity and oversight only.

Process

Dialogues and cooperation: Hazard, exposure, vulnerability

In IPCC AR6 Working Group II, climate risk results from interactions between hazards and a system's exposure and vulnerability, and responses can add risk.

  1. 01 Drivers

    1. 01HazardDataset · Regional health bodyThe potential occurrence of a natural or human-induced physical event or trend that may harm people, property, services or ecosystems.
    2. 02ExposureDataset · Regional health bodyThe presence of people, livelihoods, species, ecosystems, infrastructure or assets in places and settings that could be adversely affected.
    3. 03SensitivityDataset · Regional health bodyThe degree to which a system or species is affected, either adversely or beneficially, by climate variability or change.
    4. 04Capacity to cope and adaptDataset · Regional health bodyThe ability of systems, institutions, humans and other organisms to adjust to damage, take opportunities or respond to consequences.

  2. 02 Assessment

    1. 05Risk from responsesComponent · Regional health bodyRisks from climate responses arise when responses miss their objectives, or from trade-offs or negative side effects.
    2. 06VulnerabilityComponent · Regional health bodyThe propensity or predisposition to be adversely affected. It includes sensitivity to harm and lack of capacity to cope and adapt.
    3. 07RiskModel · Health and Biosecurity GovernanceRisk results from dynamic interactions between hazards and the system's exposure and vulnerability. Each may be uncertain and change.

  3. 03 Response

    1. 08Risk management and responseStep · Regional health bodyRisk management is plans, actions, strategies or policies that reduce the likelihood or size of adverse consequences.
    2. 09Residual riskRecord · Regional health bodyThe climate impact risk that remains after adaptation and mitigation efforts. Adaptation can redistribute risk between areas and groups.

  4. 04 Decision

    1. 10Decision by the responsible partyDecision · Regional health bodyThe framing names no single decision maker. Decisions on responses rest with the responsible party under its own rules.
