How does ICAO relate to WHOs International Health Regulations (2005)?
The WHO’s International Health Regulations (2005) [IHR (2005)] provides a framework for reducing the risk to human health from communicable diseases with the potential for causing a public health emergency. The relevant provisions of the IHR (2005) have been used to develop ICAO Standards and Recommended Practices and supporting guidelines to ensure that there are no areas of conflict between the IHR (2005) and ICAO’s work.
