No results found.SIS OT is an operational tool for guiding a gradual assessment process on a specific country's (in this example, Indonesia's) integrated surveillance capacity and cross-sectoral information system for zoonotic disease. A cross-sector Surveillance and Information Sharing System coordinated by One Health (OH) is critical for the rapid detection of zoonotic disease events in a country, using information from animal health, human health, environment, and other relevant sectors. Under a cross-sectoral OH coordination, SIS OT assists national authorities in their efforts to create and strengthen zoonotic disease surveillance and information sharing (SIS).During the SIS OT workshop, participants agreed on the scope and rationale for zoonotic disease targets such as Rabies, Avian Influenza, Japanese Encephalitis, Nipah, Anthraks, Leptospirosis, and others. The followings were established during the SIS OT workshop, which took place from 5-7 October 2021: 1) a step-wise methodology for independent evaluation of current national structures or systems; 2) a list of target activities to be completed, a plan for improving surveillance and information sharing, and a timetable for the development of integrated surveillance national system for zoonotic disease; and 3) a list of resources to support the list of activities, based on nationally determined priorities and unique situational needs.The SIS OT recommendations will be implemented during three time periods. Each activity is led by a ministry/institution, with other ministries/agencies assisting its implementation. Since 2021, a portion of SIS OT activities have been carried out concurrently and will continue to be carried out according to the specified timetable. -
Book (stand-alone)Surveillance and Information Sharing Operational Tool
An operational tool of the Tripartite Zoonoses Guide
2022Zoonotic diseases pose risks to both animal and human health and impact livelihoods, economies, and national and global food and health security. Surveillance is an essential part of prevention and control of zoonotic diseases but cannot be effectively addressed by one sector alone. A collaborative, One Health approach and a coordinated multisectoral surveillance system are essential to rapidly identify and respond to zoonotic disease events within a country. The Surveillance and Information Sharing Operational tool (SIS OT) is a Tripartite (FAO, WHO, WOAH) tool developed under the leadership of FAO to support national authorities to establish or strengthen their coordinated, multisectoral surveillance and information sharing for zoonotic diseases. The SIS OT is based on the principles presented in the Tripartite Zoonosis Guide, in particular on “Surveillance for zoonotic diseases and information sharing”. It includes the guidance document with annexes and the Excel-based tool (SIS OT workbook). It is intended for use by a working group or in a workshop setting, by participants representing the animal health, human health, environmental health and other relevant sectors within a country that have responsibility for zoonotic diseases. It provides guidance and a stepwise method and instrument for assessing the national structures and mechanisms already in place. It links users to a curated set of existing resources developed by the Tripartite and other institutions that can help develop or improve that capacity. Finally, the SIS OT guides development of a roadmap and SIS development plan to use those resources to bridge existing structures and build or strengthen the country’s coordinated surveillance system. -
Book (stand-alone)Report on cost-benefit analysis of the monitoring, control and surveillance system and tools developed by Sri Lanka 2019
Also available in:
No results found.This publication provides guidance on the implementation of effective and efficient monitoring, control and surveillance (MCS) in the marine fisheries sector in Sri Lanka, crucial to ensuring long-term conservation of fishery resources and access to markets. The marine fisheries sector plays an important role in Sri Lanka’s economy. Sri Lanka is committed to combating Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated fishing (IUU). The current Monitoring, Control and Surveillance (MCS) system comprises of a number of tools: inspections, observers, port samplers, a satellite based vessel monitoring system, institutional arrangements such as the High Seas fisheries monitoring unit and the investigation unit for supporting the MCS system. The Sri Lankan Government has realized the need to strengthen the existing MCS system for the sustainable management and conservation of fishery resources. The cost benefit analysis on the current MCS system is therefore, undertaken with the technical support of the Food and Agriculture Organization to strengthen the capacity of the above aspects, and identify the best possible ways to minimize the cost of implementation and provide recommendations for policy adjustment. Estimated benefits and costs were assessed by discounting to derive the net present value of benefit gained from the large pelagic fisheries within the Exclusive Economic Zone and High Seas in Sri Lanka. Results of the analysis reveal that the sum of the net present value of benefits is positive. It is a good sign of positive outcomes. Resource rent is around 19 percent of the estimated total landed catch value. This contribution of resource rent is substantial for the industry. The study concludes by drawing attention to how the implementation of a sound MCS system and tools can create a win-win situation with multiple benefits in terms of economic, social and ecological benefits for the country.
