The document summarizes survey responses from health organizations in East Africa on decision-making and decision support tools. Respondents said participatory approaches, environmental and socioeconomic factors, and available scientific data are important in decision-making. Challenges include sustaining vector control and prioritizing surveillance. Respondents need information on disease trends, costs and benefits of options, and maps of endemicity, vulnerability, and hazards. Uncertainty complicates decisions due to incomplete knowledge, conflicting views, and unpredictability. Uncertainty is addressed through stakeholder consultation, scenario analysis, and surveillance data. Decisions are needed at local to international levels over timeframes from months to decades.
