    This four-pager document provides a high-level strategic direction to support and inform the development and/or revision of national and regional action plans for HPAI prevention and control. It is not intended to be prescriptive or binding. It presents the animal health sector including the wildlife component (with a particular focus on poultry as the sector where animal health interventions can significantly reduce HPAI) of a wider One Health approach to the prevention and control of HPAI.

    In response to the escalating threat of high pathogenicity avian influenza (HPAI), the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH) have launched a revised global strategy for the prevention and control of HPAI (2024–2033) under the Global Framework for the Progressive Control of Transboundary Animal Diseases (GF-TADs). This updated strategy builds upon lessons from the 2008 framework and responds to new epidemiological challenges, including the widespread emergence and persistence of H5Nx viruses.Adopting a One Health approach, the strategy recognizes the interconnectedness of human, animal and environmental health. It aims to reduce the impact of HPAI on poultry while enhancing the resilience and sustainability of agrifood systems. By strengthening disease surveillance, improving biosecurity, and promoting science-driven interventions—including responsible vaccination and poultry sector transformation—the strategy seeks to prevent outbreaks, protect livelihoods, and minimize risks to public health.Multistakeholder collaboration is central to its implementation, with a strong emphasis on public–private partnerships to ensure effective implementation. Through continuous monitoring, evaluation, and adaptation, the strategy provides a flexible yet structured framework that enables countries to tailor prevention and control measures to their specific contexts.
