    As part of the USAID Emerging Pandemic Threats 2 (EPT2) programme, FAO works closely with the Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Environment and Forestry to build greater capacity to address emerging infectious diseases and zoonoses. The global health threat of Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR), was given greater attention within the ECTAD programme this year and both AMR and communicating One Health to the public will receive even more support in the final year of the EPT2 programme. To accomplish its objectives, the FAO Emergency Centre for Transboundary Animal Diseases (ECTAD) works closely with Government of Indonesia line ministries, local government Livestock and Animal Health Services, WHO, USAID, the Australia AIP-EID project, private sector partners and civil society organisations.

    This document provides an overview of the activities conducted through the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Global Stockpile for Emergency Animal Diseases – a project implemented by the FAO Emergency Centre for Transboundary Animal Diseases. Funded by the United States Agency for International Development, the project aims to facilitate a safe and rapid response to priority zoonotic disease outbreaks of public health importance around the globe. The rapid availability of diagnostic reagents, laboratory consumables and personal protective equipment supports surge capacities, thereby facilitating the effective implementation of outbreak investigation and initial response activities to contain priority zoonotic diseases. This early response mechanism supported by the project addresses critical surge gaps and gives governments the time to organize a full-scale response. By maintaining sufficient capacity, Member Nations can sustainably cover country-level surveillance.
