This framework comprises a perpetually repeating cycle of prevention, detection, assessment, reporting, response, and addressing needs, with appropriate mitigation efforts built‐in and hardwired into the collective health security response. When considering IHS, our group’s primary goal is to emphasize the utility of applying a predefined framework to effectively approach health security threats.

These concerns can directly and indirectly impact IHS both in the short and long term.

Wildfires, and climate change), nuclear incidents (both civilian and military), information and cyber‐health security (CHS), industrialization and related dangers, globalization, public infrastructure, pharmaceutical production and supply chains, misuse of communication platforms (e.g., social media ), as well as systemic racism and otherįorms of discrimination. The broadened scope of IHS now includes a variety of topics including emerging infectious diseases (EIDs), chronic health conditions (CHCs), social determinants of health (SDH, including access to care), civilian injury and interpersonal violence (CIV), terrorism (inclusive of bioterrorism), planetary changes (volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, The American College of Academic International Medicine Consensus Group (ACAIM‐CG) developed and recently published a summative assessment highlighting an expanded and re‐defined global IHSĪgenda. International health security (IHS) encompasses any natural or anthropogenic occurrence that can threaten the safety of human health and well‐being. It is hoped that this collective work will provide a foundation for further research within the re-defined, expanded scope of IHS. This framework comprises of prevention, detection, assessment, reporting, response, addressing needs, with built-in mitigation and the continued renewal of this cycle. When considering IHS, we aim to emphasize the utility of applying a pre-defined framework to effectively approach health security threats. Impact IHS both in the long- and short-term. These concerns can directly and indirectly The American College of Academic International Medicine Consensus Group (ACAIM-CG) developed a summative assessment highlighting the main issues that can impact IHS including emerging infectious diseases, chronic health conditions, bioterrorism, planetary changes (volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, wildfires, and climate change), nuclear incidents, information and cyber-health, industrialization, globalization, pharmaceutical production, and communication platforms (social media).

International health security (IHS) encompasses any natural or anthropogenic occurrence that can threaten the safety of human health and well-being.
