No results found.Concept Note on “African swine fever: Managing with a One Health Lens,” presented at the International Conference on Veterinary Science 2025 in Bangkok, Thailand. It highlights ASF as a significant disease affecting domestic and wild pigs, which, while not directly threatening human health, impacts livelihoods, food security, and trade across Asia since its emergence in 2018. The event detailed in the concept note aims to raise awareness of practical One Health applications and share innovations that enhance prevention, preparedness, detection and response to the disease. It describes a structured learning journey incorporating evidence from field experiences in Cambodia, Indonesia, the Lao People's Democratic Republic, the Philippines, Thailand and Viet Nam. Key topics include wild boar ecology, strengthening laboratory networks, national simulation exercises and capacity building for veterinary and wildlife services. Special emphasis is placed on risk communication, community engagement and biosecurity measures to bolster resilience among smallholder farmers.The intended audience encompasses animal and human health professionals, academics, government officials, development partners and industry stakeholders. Expected outcomes include improved understanding of sustainable management strategies for ASF and methods that can be applied to other transboundary animal diseases and zoonoses, along with increased visibility for FAO and its partners through interactive exhibits, success story launches and recorded discussions at the conference booth. -

No results found.The United States Agency for International Development and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations are working together to keep the world safe from infectious disease threats. Their two key programmes – Global Health Security Agenda and Emerging Pandemic Threats – are building animal health capacity to prevent, detect and respond to disease threats in over 30 countries. The Global Health Security Agenda programme develops national capacity to prevent zoonotic and non-zoonotic diseases while quickly and effectively detecting and controlling diseases when they do emerge. The Emerging Pandemic Threats programme improves national capacity to pre-empt the emergence and re-emergence of infectious zoonotic disease and to prevent the next pandemic. Action against emerging pandemic threats is taken through projects on: Avian influenza, Middle East respiratory syndrome, Africa Sustainable Livestock 2050 and Emergency equipment stockpile. With high-impact diseases that jump from animals to humans on the rise, these programmes are reducing the risk to lives and livelihoods from national, regional and global disease spread. -
