Purpose and structure of the SORMAS Foundation

The SORMAS Foundation is a non-profit organization based in Brunswick, Germany, dedicated to promoting sustainable public health initiatives worldwide. Our primary focus is on the prevention and control of transmissible diseases through development cooperation, science, and research. We achieve this through the development, promotion, and implementation of innovative digital systems that support national and international public health organizations in the early detection and containment of epidemics.

Our flagship system, SORMAS, is a state-of-the-art digital platform that serves as a guidance system for disease control efforts. However, our activities extend beyond SORMAS to encompass a wide range of public health initiatives, including research, capacity building, and advocacy. Our team of experts is committed to collaborating with partners around the world to develop effective and sustainable solutions to global health challenges.

We support local, national and international organizations in the development and implementation of SORMAS and other digital open source systems for disease prevention and mitigation."
