SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA)
(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal agencies
must obtain approval from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for each
collection of information they conduct
or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also
requires Federal agencies to provide a
60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each new
proposed collection, each proposed
extension of existing collection of
information, and each reinstatement of
previously approved information
collection before submitting the
collection to the OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are
publishing this notice of a proposed
data collection as described below.
The OMB is particularly interested in
comments that will help:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
4. Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other

5. Assess information collection costs.
Proposed Project
Understanding multi-sectoral
collaboration for strengthening public
health capacities in Ethiopia—New—
Office of Public Health Preparedness
and Response (OPHPR), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Countries with poor public health
infrastructure are more vulnerable to
adverse health outcomes caused by
disease outbreaks, natural disasters, and
other public health events (Rodier,
2007). The 2013 Ebola outbreak in West
Africa highlighted the shortcomings of
infrastructure and preparedness plans in
the region, and prompted Ministries of
Health in affected countries to
reexamine capabilities and identify
approaches for strengthening them
(Heymann, 2015). More recently, the
spread of the Zika virus in 2015 through
more than twenty countries in the
Americas demonstrated that prioritizing
efforts to strengthen public health
systems and capacities is imperative to
mitigating the impact of public health
events and improving global health
security (Lucey, 2016).
Capacities refer to the abilities and
resources of countries to identify and
address problems, and carry out
functions for public health. Public
health emergency preparedness (PHEP)
related capacities focus acutely on the
resources and infrastructure required for
communities and countries to
effectively respond to incidents.
Zoonotic disease (ZD) related capacities
center on minimizing the spread of
diseases from animals to humans in
domestic, agricultural and wildlife
settings.
PHEP and ZD are regarded as crosscutting technical areas of public health,
spanning numerous fields of practice
and knowledge necessary to
successfully mitigate the impacts of
public health events. As a result, multisectoral collaboration—a cornerstone of
many public health initiatives and
programs—is a prominent feature of
efforts and plans to strengthen PHEP
and ZD capacities. While the
importance of multi-sectoral
collaboration for health strategies is
widely recognized by global health
experts and leaders, the evidence base
on demonstrated benefits and
advantages in public health capacity
building is limited. Some research has
been carried out to understand aspects
PO 00000
Frm 00022
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
42657
of public health capacity strengthening
efforts and their impact on global health
security; however, it often focuses on
high-income countries, such as the
United States (U.S.). More research is
needed, particularly in low- and
middle-income country settings, to
understand how collaboration occurs
across sectors to implement efforts to
strengthen PHEP and ZD capacities and
systems, and to gain a deeper
understanding of the perspectives of
partners involved in the collaboration.
The purpose of the proposed research
is to explore how multi-sectoral
collaboration occurs for PHEP and ZD
related activities implemented under
the Global Health Security Agenda
(GHSA). The research will employ a
multiple-case study design in Ethiopia,
focusing on the GHSA technical areas of
PHEP and ZD as the cases. The study
seeks to understand the landscape of
stakeholders engaged in PHEP and ZD
related capacity development, and their
perspectives on one another’s roles and
contributions to efforts. This research
will also examine stakeholder
perceptions on barriers and facilitators
to collaboration under GHSA, overall
and in each technical area via in-depth
interviews. Finally, this study will
utilize an adapted questionnaire that
measures collaboration across five key
domains to foster dialogue between
partners on the strength of multisectoral collaboration in Ethiopia for
GHSA related ZD and PHEP activities.
Participants will be able to provide
feedback to these questionnaires
through a workshop. Research findings
will be compared across the two
technical areas to understand
similarities and differences in
stakeholder environments and partner
perspectives on collaboration under
GHSA; they can also be used to identify
opportunities to amplify successes and
overcome challenges for stakeholders to
collaborate across sectors—in Ethiopia
and other countries—to achieve ZD and
PHEP goals under GHSA. CDC will
disseminate information and findings
through presentations, publications, and
summary reports to stakeholders and
interested members of the public. This
research can enrich understanding
among stakeholders of one another’s
perspectives on collaborative efforts,
and encourage further dialogue on how
to best facilitate multi-sectoral
collaboration for broad global agendas
such as GHSA, and improved health
outcomes overall. CDC is requesting a
two year approval for this information
collection. Information collection
activities will begin approximately one
month after OMB approval.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The U.S.
Department of Health and Human
Services policy stipulates that
committee membership be balanced in
terms of points of view represented and
the committee’s function. Appointments
shall be made without discrimination
on the basis of age, race, ethnicity,
gender, sexual orientation, gender
identity, HIV status, disability, and
cultural, religious, or socioeconomic
status. Nominees must be U.S. citizens,
and cannot be full-time employees of
the U.S. Government. Current
participation on federal workgroups or
prior experience serving on a federal
advisory committee does not disqualify
a candidate; however, HHS policy is to
avoid excessive individual service on
advisory committees and multiple
committee memberships. Committee
members are Special Government
Employees (SGEs), requiring the filing
of financial disclosure reports at the
beginning and annually during their
terms. CDC reviews potential candidates
for BSC, OID membership each year,
and provides a slate of nominees for
consideration to the Secretary of HHS
for final selection. HHS notifies selected
candidates of their appointment near
the start of the term in October 2019, or

as soon as the HHS selection process is
completed. Note that the need for
different expertise varies from year to
year and a candidate who is not selected
in one year may be reconsidered in a
subsequent year. SGE Nominees must be
U.S. citizens, and cannot be full-time
employees of the U.S. Government.
Candidates should submit the following
items:
D Current curriculum vitae, including
complete contact information
(telephone numbers, mailing address,

but at least one letter must be submitted
by a person not employed by an HHS
agency (e.g., CDC, NIH, FDA, etc.).
Nominations may be submitted by the
candidate him- or herself, or by the
person/organization recommending the
candidate.
