Asia-Pacific Workshop on Multisectoral Collaboration for the Prevention and Control of Zoonosis
|
Expansion of population, higher demand on agriculture and livestock production, extensive use of antimicrobial and global warming triggers the emergence and re-emergence of new pathogens, contributing the significant risk of public health threat. This year 2013 was significant with the emergence of avian influenza (H7N9) and Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) and escalating the outbreaks of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (H5N1) in a number of Asian countries. In recent years, progress has been made to further enhance collaboration between human health, animal health and relevant sectors such as wildlife, environment to share the best practices and innovative ideas to address zoonotic and other emerging and re-emerging diseases at the human, animal and ecosystem interfaces. The Asia-Pacific Workshop on Multisectoral collaboration for the prevention and control of zoonoses was organized by WHO in collaboration with FAO and OIE in Kathmandu, Nepal from 27 to 29 November, 2013. It was the fourth Regional workshop organized by three organizations since 2010.
