BookletFirst South Asia transboundary animal diseases coordination meeting for peste des petits ruminants, foot-and-mouth disease and lumpy skin disease
Joint Meeting Report | Paro, Bhutan, 8-12 May 2023
2024Also available in:
No results found.The document is a joint meeting report on the First South Asia TADs Coordination Meeting for Peste des Petits Ruminants (PPR), Foot-and-Mouth Disease (FMD), and Lumpy Skin Disease (LSD) which was held in two phases, (i) a virtual preparatory phase on the FAO Virtual Learning Center followed by (ii) an in-person gathering which took place in Paro, Bhutan in May 2023. The meeting was organized to support sharing information on disease situations, assess progress in disease control, and promote regional coordination and cooperation to address the impact of these three priority transboundary animal diseases (TADs) in South Asia. The report includes summaries of disease situations and a review of progress in their control in the region, and lists recommendations to mitigate the impact of these diseases and improve their control in South Asia. Key challenges identified during the meeting included knowledge gaps, limited vaccine quality control, and the lack of cross-border coordination. To address these challenges, participants advocated for more harmonized and holistic approaches to TADs control and management. -
Book (series)Practical surveillance guidelines for the progressive control of foot-and-mouth disease and other transboundary animal diseases 2024
Also available in:
No results found.Progressive control pathways provide a stepwise, measurable approach to disease control and, potentially, eradication. Surveillance systems must be capable of providing useful information to document programme progress, assessing intervention efforts, and the achievement of interim outcomes. This document demonstrates a practical surveillance approach that progressesfrom measuring broad disease epidemiology and risk factors to specifically evaluating intervention options and documenting low disease prevalence. The process focusses on aligning practical surveillance components with disease programme outcomes while focusing on foot-and-mouth disease as an example. -
