Abstract

There are calls for a transformation in biosecurity, including disease surveillance, at all levels to prevent and respond effectively to rising risks of animal, human, and zoonotic epidemics and pandemics. Many nations are adopting new technologies to transform biosecurity systems. However, limited attention is given to the role of institutions (regulations, rules, and organisations) essential for enabling these transformations. Aspects of biosecurity, such as on-ground general surveillance and biosecurity, generate social dilemmas that require unique institutional and governance arrangements to discourage free riding, prevent coordination failures, and support collective action across scales.
