A new approach to pandemic preparedness: ASEF-ASAP

A new, future-oriented approach to the preparation for pandemics and public health emergencies is proposed by an international panel of experts and stakeholders brought together by the Asia-Europe Foundation (ASEF) and facilitated and consulted by Prospex.

The approach is based on a scenario method and has first been applied in pandemic preparedness across two world regions.
