The Global Framework for Progressive Control of Transboundary Animal Diseases (GF-TADs)
GF-TADs is a joint FAO/OIE initiative
Combines the strengths of both organizations to achieve agreed common objectives.
It’s a facilitation mechanism that will endeavour to:
empower regional alliances in the fight against TADs
provide for capacity building
assist in establishing programmes for the specific control of certain TADs based on regional priorities
Major contribution to the global eradication of Rinderpest

Ecosystem Health
AnimalHealth
HumanHealth
One Health
The ‘One Health’ approach can be best defined
as a collaborative, international, cross-sectoral,
multidisciplinary mechanism to address threats
and reduce risks of detrimental infectious
diseases at the animal-human-ecosystem
interface.
Disease emergence can no longer be seen in isolation but must now be viewed
alongside a continuum of climatic changes, natural resource management, agricultural
intensification, land utilization patterns, trade globalization, and shifting farming, food
distribution and marketing systems.

Setting the scene - Egypt
•High poultry population and density
•A/H5N1 reportedly introduced in 2006, currently widespread and
endemic
•Weak biosecurity
•Huge mistrust between the public and private sector – weak PPP
•Disease prevalence high and sporadic human infections
•Heavy reliance on AI vaccination without any monitoring (currently 41
vaccines on market)
•Various measures put in place proved ineffective
• need to reinvigorate the entire animal health system and create an
enabling environment for disease control
![Page 32: FAO partnerships on health risk and control of influenza and emerging zoonoses](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051609/54666dfbaf79597e338b5080/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Revised Strategy
Animal Health and Livelihood Sustainability Strategy
Revised 2010
Joint United Nations Assessment of Government of Egypt H5N1 Control Efforts6-16 December 2009
![Page 33: FAO partnerships on health risk and control of influenza and emerging zoonoses](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051609/54666dfbaf79597e338b5080/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Animal Health and Livelihood Sustainability Strategy (Revised 2010)
• Paradigm shift in thinking: From emergency to longer-term risk reduction
• Phased approach of critical measures along the poultry value and market chain
• Control
• Consolidation
• Elimination/eradication
• Challenges in implementation
• Strategy is still valid and serves as reference for HPAI endemic countries
![Page 34: FAO partnerships on health risk and control of influenza and emerging zoonoses](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051609/54666dfbaf79597e338b5080/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Current and planned work
• Sustaining essential animal health activities (Epidemiology, Biosecurity and coordination) – awaiting the enabling conditions for full-scale implementation of the revised strategy
• Rationalizing the AI vaccination strategy in Egypt
• Advocate for close collaboration with the private sector
• Promote and value effective vaccine/vaccination and monitoring - with an exit strategy
• Assess the potential use of DOC vaccine using HVT AI Vectored vaccine for the control of A/H5N1 HPAI in Egypt
• Promoting public-private partnerships (PPP) and 4-way linking between the animal and public health sectors
• Strengthen institutional capacity and harmonization of response actions
