Plain-English summary

The veterinary and public health fields are facing new challenges due to globalization, which is the process of countries becoming more interconnected. To tackle these issues, a strategic plan has been developed to strengthen regional veterinary organizations and improve collaboration among various veterinary centers and laboratories. One notable success in this effort is the progress made in the area of veterinary medicines. Overall, these initiatives aim to enhance the effectiveness of veterinary care and public health on a global scale.

Abstract

Like several other sectors, animal and public health face new challenges arising from the worldwide globalisation phenomenon. To this end, the 4th strategic plan specifically addresses reinforcing the capacity of Regional Representations and the network of OIE Collaborating Centres and Reference Laboratories and implementing networking approaches. A good example of achievements in this field, and of overcoming constraints and limits, can be found in veterinary medicinal products (VMPs).
