Stakeholder Engagement includes the process of engaging stakeholders for a clear purpose to achieve agreed outcomes. It is now also recognized as a fundamental accountability mechanism since it obliges an organization to involve stakeholders in identifying and understanding of the specific program/project and responding to issues and concerns raised by the stakeholders for decisions, actions, and hence improving program/project performance.

The Accelerating Genomics-based Surveillance for COVID-19 Response in South Africa and the African Continent project will expand the capacity of South Africa and the region to produce more than 20,000 SARS-CoV-2 genomes in a three-year period.

The Project includes four (4) components:

• Component 1: Expanding the NGS-SA capacity and training

• Component 2: Establishing an effective system to evaluate diagnostics and vaccine effectiveness against the variants in Africa

• Component 3: Strengthening the data systems to share and training public health officials and scientists for genomic sequencing data analysis in near-real time

• Component 4: Project management, monitoring and evaluation
