  • Description:
    Respectfully Submitted: November 23, 2010

    In spring 2010, Dr Thomas Frieden, CDC Director, established the Global Work Group (GWG) of the Advisory Committee to the Director (ACD) of CDC. The goal of the GWG is to provide guidance to the newly formed CDC Center for Global Health (CGH), and to make pertinent recommendations to the ACD. Dr Alan Greenberg, an ACD member, was asked to Chair the GWG, and Dr Kevin DeCock, CGH Director, was asked to serve as the Designated Federal Official (DFO) for the GWG.

    During initial discussions, three initial focus areas were identified for consideration by the GWG: 1) Strategy and Structure; 2) Science and Program; and 3) External Relations. At the spring 2010 ACD meeting, six ACD members volunteered to serve on the GWG. In addition, six external experts, three international representatives, and three designated federal officials from the CGH were invited to serve on the GWG.

    The inaugural GWG meeting was convened on the CDC Roybal campus in Atlanta on October 27, 2010, the day prior to the fall 2010 ACD meeting. This date was selected to facilitate both the travel of the ACD members, and the report back to the ACD on the following day.
