Urbanisation will be one of the defining demographic trends of the 21st
century-creating unique opportunities for sustainable capacity development, as
well as substantial risks and challenges for managing public health and health
emergencies. Plans and policies for responding to public health emergencies are
generally framed at higher levels of governance, but developing, improving and
sustaining the capacities necessary for implementing these policies is a direct
function of local-level authorities. Evaluating local-level public health
capacities is an important process for identifying strengths and weaknesses that
can impact the preparedness for, detection of and response to health security
threats. However, while various evaluations and assessments exist for evaluating
capacities at other levels, currently, there are no readily available health
security assessments for the local-level. In this paper, we describe a tool-the
Rapid Urban Health Security Assessment (RUHSA) Tool-that is based on a variety of
other relevant assessments and guidance documents. Assessing capacities allow for
local-level authorities to identify the strengths and weaknesses of their local
health security systems, create multiyear action plans and prioritise
opportunities for improving capacities, effectively engage with development
partners to target resources effectively and develop compelling narratives and a
legacy of leadership. While the RUHSA Tool was not designed to be used in the
midst of a public health emergency, such as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, it may
also be adapted to inform a checklist for prioritising what capacities and
activities a city needs to rapidly develop or to help focus requests for
assistance.
