Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetDeveloping capacities for the control of tsetse and trypanosomosis in Ethiopia
FAO Ethiopia Technical Cooperation Project

No results found.Tsetse transmitted AAT causes enormous mortality, which dramatically reduces animal production and limits utilization of infested arable land for crop and livestock production. The total loss due to T&T is difficult to measure but roughly estimated to be about 200 million USD per year, including the most visible direct losses (meat and milk) and the costs of drugs. Various control efforts have made and resulted considerable achievements in some areas where tsetse fly populations and trypanosomosis prevalence were high. However, the efforts were fragmented, focusing on temporary relief than sustainable solutions and hence, some areas were re-infested due to strategic, institutional, financial, and technical constraints. The implementation of the TCP has made a significant contribution in developing the national capacity through the development of the national T&T strategy and roadmap, enhancing national capacity in data management and implementation of Progressive Control Pathway (PCP)-smart Animal African Trypanosomosis (AAT) control activities. -

The Tsetse and Trypanosomosis Information periodical has been established to collate and disseminate current information on all aspects of tsetse and Trypanosomosis research and control to institutions and individuals involved in the problems of African Trypanosomosis. The periodical is prepared for publication in both English and French. -
ArticleA national atlas of tsetse and African animal trypanosomosis in Mali 2019
Also available in:
No results found.Tsetse-transmitted trypanosomosis is a deadly, neglected tropical disease and a major challenge for mixed crop-livestock agriculture in sub-Saharan Africa. It is caused by several species of the genus Trypanosoma. Information on the occurrence of tsetse fies and African animal trypanosomosis (AAT) is available for diferent areas of Mali. However, these data have never been harmonized and centralized, which prevents the development of comprehensive epidemiological maps and constrains an evidence-based planning of control actions. To address this challenge, we created a dynamic geo-spatial database of tsetse and AAT distribution in Mali.
