Theme : Transforming Global Health: Integrating Medical, Social and Behavioral Interventions
Epidemiology is the study and analysis of the distribution, patterns and determinants of health
and disease conditions in defined populations.
It is a cornerstone of public health, and shapes
policy decisions and evidence-based practice by identifying risk factors for disease and
targets for preventive healthcare.
Epidemiology Foundation of India (EFI) is working to provide platform to researchers and
like-minded organizations, individual, network and other Governmental and NGOs to discuss
different aspects of disease occurance and prevention.
Currently World is witnessing an unprecedented crisis of COVID-19 pandemic. Understanding the natural history of disease and implementing control and mitigation activities, the epidemiology of different infectious diseases needed to be worked on. The ongoing pandemic and programming experiences from the field have revealed that no single sector or agency can adequately address all the requirements of healthcare, so promoting and sustaining engagement between different sectors is a core priority for improved health outcomes. This demands an integrated approach of institutions, agencies, individuals and resources to promote the participation of policymakers, governments and researchers across the key sectors and health specialists and communities to create healthy environments.
