Operational tool of the Tripartite Zoonoses Guide
2024Also available in:
No results found.Zoonotic diseases pose significant risks to both animal and human health, impacting livelihoods, economies, and national and global food and health security. In response, FAO, WHO, and WOAH convened over 100 international experts to develop the 2019 Tripartite Zoonoses Guide (TZG), which offers standardized guidance and best practices for addressing zoonotic diseases globally. To further assist countries with their operational approaches, a suite of operational tools based on the TZG's technical principles is currently under development.Most workforce development plans and efforts are sector-specific which may not address interlinkages across sectors. Effective zoonotic disease management requires a One Health approach. The Workforce Development Operational Tool (WFD OT) focuses on strengthening workforce competencies and other areas of the enabling environment to work across sectors and disciplines to effectively manage zoonoses and other One Health threats at the human–animal–environment interface. Outputs of the tool are integrated into existing workforce plans for these to be financed, coordinated, and implemented. This document serves as a step-by-step guide for utilizing the WFD OT in a stepwise approach, assisting countries in assessing and strengthening the workforce capacity for zoonotic disease management at the human–animal–environment interface. -

No results found.This evaluation identifies lessons learned and good practices from FAO’s implementation of the Global Health Security Agenda (GHSA-FAO), an eight-year programme to strengthen health systems in 20 countries across Africa and Asia. Conducted through ten country case studies and validated in regional workshops, the evaluation finds that GHSA-FAO made important contributions to workforce development, laboratory and surveillance systems, and regional coordination. It also highlights persistent gaps at sub-national levels and the need for stronger data systems, sustained financing, and targeted advocacy to enhance the long-term impact and sustainability of global health security efforts. -

Lessons learned and good practices in strengthening animal and public health systems in Africa and Asia
2025Also available in:
No results found.The Global Health Security Agenda (GHSA) was an eight-year programme funded by the United States Agency for International Development. It aimed to strengthen animal and human health systems in twenty countries in Africa and Asia. The goal of this evaluation was to identify lessons learned and good practices to inform future One Health efforts. The evaluation found that the GHSA programme enhanced animal health capacity by establishing expert teams at both national and regional levels, strengthening laboratory and surveillance systems and facilitating One Health collaborations. These activities build on previous efforts and remain highlight relevant, as evidenced during the COVID-19 pandemic.
