Plain-English summary
This research discusses a global plan aimed at controlling animal diseases that can easily spread across countries and impact economies, trade, and food security. These diseases are a serious concern because they can quickly become widespread and require countries to work together to manage them effectively. The plan, developed by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the World Organisation for Animal Health, focuses on helping regional and national veterinary authorities improve their efforts in managing these diseases. The goal is to create a cooperative framework that enhances the overall response to animal health issues worldwide.
Abstract
Transboundary animal diseases are defined by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nation's Emergency Prevention System as those diseases that are of significant economic, trade and/or food security importance, which can easily spread to other countries and reach epidemic proportions, and where control/management including exclusion requires cooperation among several countries. The Global Framework for the Progressive Control of Transboundary Animal Diseases represents a platform of the FAO and World Organisation for Animal Health to engage regional sub-regional organizations and national veterinary authorities in developing and monitoring progress in animal disease management efforts.
