    Monitoring and evaluation for effective management of zoonotic diseases

    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.Many countries have expressed interest in developing monitoring and evaluation (M&E) plans for One Health zoonotic disease systems but often face limitations in expertise and resources. The Monitoring and Evaluation Operational Tool (M&E OT) addresses this gap by providing comprehensive guidance on creating an M&E framework. It offers methods for conceptualizing best practices from the TZG and resources to help countries design and implement M&E activities using the principles outlined in the TZG and its operational tools.This document serves as a step-by-step guide for utilizing the M&E OT in a stepwise approach, enabling countries to establish a robust monitoring and evaluation framework for zoonotic diseases. This framework will support existing and new monitoring and evaluation processes for zoonotic disease strategies and plans, all within the One Health approach.

    Influenza and other zoonotic diseases at the human-animal interface
    FAO/OIE/WHO Joint Scientific Consultation, 27-29 April 2010, Verona (Italy)
    2011
    Also available in:

    Given the complexity of zoonotic disease emergence in an increasingly globalized world, effective strategies for reducing future threats must be identified. Lessons learned from past experiences controlling diseases such as severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI), and pandemic (H1N1) 2009, indicate that new paradigms are needed for early detection, prevention, and control to reduce persistent global threats from influenza and other emerging zoonotic dis eases. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE), and the World Health Organization (WHO), in collaboration with the Istituto Zooprofilattico Sperimentale delle Venezie (IZSVe) organised a joint scientific consultation in Verona, Italy (27-29 April 2010) entitled “FAO-OIE-WHO Joint Scientific Consultation on Influenza and Other Emerging Zoonotic Diseases at the Human-Animal Interface". This document is a summary of the consu ltation. It provides examples of emerged or emerging zoonotic viral diseases. It describes commonalities across diseases and ideas for new approaches and suggests steps towards translating meeting outcomes into policy.

    Global technical meeting on MERS-CoV and other emerging zoonotic coronaviruses
    Virtual meeting, 15–16 November 2021

    Over the last nine years, FAO, WHO and WOAH have worked with Member States, public health professionals and experts across multiple sectors and technical disciplines to improve preparedness and response capacities for MERS-CoV and other high threat zoonotic pathogens around the world. This work continues to bring together public health and animal health experts from affected and at-risk countries, scientists, and subject matter experts of high threat respiratory pathogens to review the latest scientific evidence on MERS-CoV and improve multi-sectoral collaboration. As a follow-up to previous technical meetings on MERS-CoV hosted by FAO, WHO and WOAH, a Global Technical Meeting was convened virtually on 15-16 November 2021 to share the latest findings from accelerated efforts to implement the MERS-CoV public health research agenda and research and development (R&D) road map, in the context of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. This documents presents a summary of the presentations and discussions.
