No results found.Food security and safety in the NENA region are threatened by TPPD. Production of healthy plants, and sustainable food production systems in the NENA region requires specific solutions. In addition, proper policies and legislation, smart investments, regional collaboration, and planning are all key factors in ensuring higher efficiency levels and prompt responses to threats to food systems. To date, NENA countries are not adequately prepared to respond effectively to new and re-emerging transboundary plant pests and diseases. On this occasion, we urge NENA countries and plant protection experts to support establishing a regional program to face all risks posed by transboundary plant pests and diseases in the NENA region. -

No results found.Plant pests and diseases threaten food security and nutrition around the world and seriously compromise food security in the in Near East and North Africa (NENA) region, with severe economic and environmental consequences. Most of these transboundary diseases are transmitted by propagative plant material and have no curative measures. The lack of harmonized certified propagation materials and relative diagnostic protocols in NENA countries increases considerably the spread of transboundary plant pest and diseases. Furthermore, the deficiency of correct control measure and applied quarantine control strategies, together with the absence of surveillance and early warning systems are the main factors causing the fast spread of those destructive agents. -

No results found.The European Commission for the Control of Foot-and-Mouth Disease (EuFMD) risk reduction programme in the European neighbouring regions of North Africa, Near East, and Southeast European Neighbourhood is delivered within the Move-FAST strategy. This strategy continues the focus upon foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) and extends the scope of preparedness and risk-reduction activities to similar transboundary animal diseases which pose an immediate threat to the EuFMD Member Nations. The programme focuses on the control of Foot-and-mouth And Similar Transboundary animal diseases (FAST) in the neighbouring regions through the improvement of prevention, surveillance, and control. In this context, the FAST quarterly report of significant events provides relevant and regular risk information to risk managers operating in EuFMD Member Nations and neighbouring countries. The constant monitoring of the epidemiological situation together with information on the implementation of control and surveillance strategies increases awareness of major transboundary animal disease threats for Europe and the regions of North Africa, the Near East, and Southeast European Neighbourhood (SEEN). The European neighbourhood The neighbourhood of the 39 EuFMD Member Nations is made up by non-EuFMD Members that either have land borders with EuFMD Members, are members of the Mediterranean animal health network (REMESA), or whose animal health status provides an early warning for FAST disease spread to the neighbourhood.
