Cooperative bioengagement efforts, as practiced by U.S. government-funded entities, such as the Defense Threat Reduction Agency's Cooperative Biological Engagement Program, the State Department's Biosecurity Engagement Program, and parallel programs in other countries, exist at the nexus between public health and security. These programs have an explicit emphasis on developing projects that address the priorities of the partner country as well as the donor. While the objectives of cooperative bioengagement programs focus on reducing the potential for accidental or intentional misuse and/or release of dangerous biological agents, many partner countries are interested in bioengagement as a means to improve basic public health capacities. This article examines the extent to which cooperative bioengagement projects address public health capacity building under the revised International Health Regulations and alignment with the Global Health Security Agenda action packages.
合作生物参与努力，如美国政府资助的实体所实践的，如国防威胁降低局的合作生物参与计划、国务院的生物安全参与计划，以及其他国家的类似计划，存在于公共卫生和安全的交叉点。这些计划明确强调制定项目，以解决伙伴国和捐助国的优先事项。虽然合作生物参与计划的目标侧重于减少危险生物制剂意外或故意滥用和/或释放的可能性，但许多伙伴国对生物参与作为改善基本公共卫生能力的手段感兴趣。本文探讨了合作生物参与项目在多大程度上根据修订后的《国际卫生条例》和与全球卫生安全议程行动方案保持一致，来解决公共卫生能力建设问题。
