    The project supported the development and rollout of a NAITS based on open source frameworks (to avoid present and future licensing costs), using modern digital technologies to minimize costs and provide the utmost flexibility, in compliance with the IT strategy of the MEPA. In parallel, the project deployed equipment for the intended users of the software and developed their capacities. As a result of project activities, the MEPA and NFA have the capacity to identify, register and track livestock animal health prevention and response measures. This was achieved through the design and development of electronic individual animal identification, registration and traceability software, which was tested through a number of pilots. A wide range of capacity development activities were undertaken, including training of slaughterhouse and NFA field veterinarians. In addition, the project successfully engaged in cooperation and exchange of knowledge and experiences with other countries in the region, in particular Armenia and Azerbaijan.
