    Document: Previous self-assessment and external assessment experiences in Taiwan were useful in planning and advocating for the JEE. During 2011-12, Taiwan conducted a selfassessment of the national IHR core capacities using the WHO-issued assessment tool for core capacity requirements at airports, ports, and ground crossings and the protocol for assessing national surveillance and response capacities for the IHR (2005) that were released in October 2009 and in December 2010, respectively. 16 To commemorate the 10th anniversary of SARS, the government had further invited the UPMC Center for Biosecurity to conduct an external assessment of Taiwan's public health emergency preparedness in December 2012. 17 External assessment of IHR core capacity requirements at airports and seaports was conducted by invited Australian experts in March 2013. 16 These experiences not only helped to engage stakeholders in uptake of regular self and external review of relevant programs, but also helped build confidence and comfort among participants in honestly demonstrating both strengths and limitations to external reviewers without need for fear of being blamed or punished.
