Dear reader,

We are pleased to welcome you to Volume 2, Number 9 of the TechnoHealth Surveillance. In this issue, we share with you the strategic approach in the deployment of digital disease surveillance tools.

The Southern African Centre for Infectious Disease Surveillance has been urged to collaborate with the President’s Office Regional Administration and Local

Government (PO-RALG) to enhance disease surveillance, data management and utilization to address community health-related challenges, which is presented in this issue.

SACIDS displayed application of digital technology in disease surveillance during the Regional East African integrated digital health roadmap held in Uganda, which is also presented in this issue.

We would like to share with you upcoming events planned by SACIDS to showcase its innovative ideas to strengthen community-based participatory disease surveillance.

We are looking forward to your contribution of articles and feedback on this and other issues of TechnoHealth Surveillance. Kindly do not hesitate to share with us stories on health-related events occurring in humans, animals and environment for the sustainability of our newsletter.

We wish you a happy reading!
