Dear National IHR Focal Point, - World Health Organization



Dear Mr Kepha Ombacho = "" "National IHR Focal Point" "" NFP,

Under the IHR (2005), WHO is requested to provide to State Parties timely updates on acute public health events of international importance while respecting the sensitivity and potential confidentiality of such information.

To that effect, WHO has developed an Event Information Site for secure communications with National IHR Focal Points (NFP). This website is accessible only to individuals designated by the NFP, and relevant intergovernmental organizations. The site is operational since 15 June 2007, when the Regulations came into force.

WHO will create personal logins ("nominative accounts") for individuals designated by the primary responsible person within the NFP institution. The personal logins will allow for secure access to this restricted website. In order to proceed with the creation of these accounts, you are kindly requested to complete the table below and return it to ihradmin@who.int at your earliest convenience.

Please note that you can request a total of five user accounts, which must include yours. For each account, please complete all the information requested in the table below.

Once we have received the required information from you, WHO will create the user accounts and send each user a confirmation message by email. This email will contain the username and a temporary password, as well as, a link to the Event Information site. For security reasons, we highly recommend the user to change his password before accessing the site (instructions will be provided for that effect). On change of your password, you can also set a password recovery question/answer.

The NFP and each of the persons granted access to the Event Information Site are responsible for fulfilling the requirements for access and maintaining the security of their passwords.
