These activities include: (1) assessment of national aquatic animal health performance and capacity for 14 of the 15 SADC member countries through the conducting of a Southern African Development Community (SADC) regional aquatic animal health capacity and performance survey; (2) the convening of the FAO/DAFF/AU-IBAR/SADC Regional Workshop on Improving Aquatic Animal Health Management and Strengthening Biosecurity Governance in Africa, held in Durban, South Africa, from 5–7 November 2014, with one of the specific objectives being to develop a SADC Regional Framework for an Aquatic Biosecurity Strategy; (3) the finalization of the draft Regional Aquatic Biosecurity Strategy for the Southern African Development Community (SADC) by the FAO team; (4) the submission of the strategy to the SADC Fisheries Technical Committee (April 2015) and its submission to SADC for official approval by the SADC Council of Ministers (April 2017). Included as annexes to the report are: Annex I. the Southern African Development Community (SADC) Regional aquatic animal health capacity and performance survey: Summary of survey results and analysis; Annex II. the Report of the FAO/DAFF/AU-IBAR/SADC Regional Workshop on Improving Aquatic Animal Health Management and Strengthening Biosecurity Governance in Africa; and Annex III. the Regional aquatic biosecurity strategy for the Southern African Development Community (SADC). The process was long but the most important is that it was done using a systematic approach that lead to good understanding leading to better consensus building, wide ownership and strong government commitment. -
Book (series)Report of the Technical Workshop on the Development of a Strategy for Improving Biosecurity (Aquatic Animal Health) in the Subregional Countries of the Mozambique Channel (Madagascar, Mozambique and the United Republic of Tanzania). 2015
Also available in:
No results found.The incursion of the white spot syndrome virus (WSSV), the most serious pathogen of cultured shrimp, into Mozambique and Madagascar prompted national governments and international agencies such as the World Bank and FAO to develop long-term policy actions through a strategy that will improve aquatic biosecurity governance in the three countries (Madagascar, Mozambique and the United Republic of Tanzania) of the Mozambique Channel, so that the risks of diseases affecting shrimp aquaculture can be reduced. The Technical Workshop on the Development of a Strategy for Improving Biosecurity (Aquatic Animal Health) in the Subregional Countries of the Mozambique Channel (Madagascar, Mozambique and the United Republic of Tanzania), held from 2 to 4 April 2013 in Maputo, Mozambique, was organized and facilitated by FAO with financial support from the World Bank and hosted by the National Institute for Development of Aquaculture and the Institute for Fish Inspection of Mozambique.
