New website on cholera control goes live [1]
[]
Date: 2025-07
The Global Task Force on Cholera Control (GTFCC), which brings together more than 50 nongovernmental organizations, academic institutions and UN agencies, and is hosted by the World Health Organization, has launched a new website. This central information hub provides governments, health professionals, partners, and the public with access to the latest information, tools, and guidance on cholera control and elimination.
“This website represents a significant step forward in raising global awareness and visibility of cholera, and provides countries and partners with essential tools to enhance coordination and joint action. It reflects our strong commitment to transparency, partnership, and evidence-driven efforts in the fight to end cholera” said Dr Philippe Barboza, WHO team lead for cholera.
Real-time data to inform action
The new website features interactive dashboards and maps displaying the latest global cholera trends, oral cholera vaccine (OCV) campaigns, Priority Areas for Multisectoral Interventions (PAMIs), National Cholera Plans (NCPs), and the presence of Country Support Platforms (CSPs). Cholera situation reports and information on the activities of partners are regularly added. These resources are designed to provide real-time insights for informed decision-making and rapid response.
Centralized technical guidance and training
With over 80 curated technical documents and training resources, the new website supports frontline health professionals and decision-makers with essential tools for planning, implementation, and monitoring of cholera interventions. Materials cover cholera control case management; surveillance and laboratory support; oral cholera vaccination; water, sanitation and hygiene; and research.
Tailored support for countries
The platform includes dedicated guidance for countries to develop and refine their National Cholera Plans (NCPs) and to identify Priority Areas for Multisectoral Interventions (PAMIs). These tailored resources aim to accelerate national progress toward the GTFCC 2030 Roadmap.
