Request for proposals for Technical Support to Conduct a National Review and Update of Thailands Integrated Antimicrobial Resistance (Amr) Surveillance Guidelines STRIDES Scope of Work STRIDES activities in Southeast Asia will implement a Government of Thailand-led, multisectoral, and tailored technical strategy aligned with Thailands National Action Plan for Health Security (NAPHS 20232027) and priority gaps identified through the 2022 Joint External Evaluation (JEE) and 2024 State Parties Annual Self-Assessment Report (SPAR) assessments. The Activity strengthens core public health capabilities in disease detection, reporting, and coordinated response with a deliberate focus on high-risk border provinces. These locations are characterized by intense cross-border mobility, migratory labor flows, zoonotic spillover risks, and recurring infectious disease outbreaks. By enhancing early warning systems, strengthening Point-of-Entry (PoE) surveillance, and equipping provincial Rapid Response Teams (RRT) and Emergency Operations Centers (EOC) with integrated tools and protocols, STRIDES will enable Thailand to detect outbreaks earlier and respond with faster, evidence-driven, multisectoral action. Central to this approach is strengthening Thailands integrated laboratory and surveillance systems across human and animal health sectors. STRIDES will work with key Thai institutions, including the Department of Disease Control (DDC), DMSC, Thai Red Cross Emerging Infectious Diseases Clinical Center (TRC-EIDCC), Chulalongkorn University, and laboratories under the DLD to expand molecular diagnostics and genomic surveillance for priority pathogens. Support will include upgrading critical infrastructure, reinforcing quality assurance (QA)/quality control (QC) systems, and expanding surveillance for high-risk zoonoses and priority pathogens, including wastewater-based surveillance where appropriate. These improvements will increase Thailands ability to generate accurate and timely laboratory data and integrate it effectively into national surveillance systems to inform real-time risk assessments and targeted public health measures.
