Abstract:
This thesis explores the international cooperation and the collaborative efforts of
various actors during the 2014-2016 Ebola outbreak in the Mano River Union, West
Africa. The study examines the roles of key institutions such as the World Health
Organization, United Nations Security Council, European Union, and non-
governmental organizations Médecins Sans Frontières in responding to the crisis.
Through an analysis of these collaborative efforts, the research highlights how
international and regional cooperation contributed to controlling the outbreak and
the significant impact on the affected countries. The findings suggest that the
coordinated response played a crucial role in mitigating the spread of the virus and
improving the global health security framework. This study provides insights into
the effectiveness of international collaboration in addressing global health
emergencies.
