New Global Strategy for the Prevention and Control of High Pathogenicity Avian Influenza (2024 – 2033) – The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and The World Organisation for Animal Health
In response to the global ecological and epidemiological changes and repeated intercontinental spread of the H5Nx goose/Guangdong (Gs/GD) lineage high pathogenicity avian influenza (HPAI), the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH), under the Global Framework for the Progressive Control of Transboundary Animal Diseases (GF-TADs), have drafted a ten-year global strategy for the prevention and control of high pathogenicity avian influenza (2024–2033).
This replaces the strategy published in 2008 in response to the initial emergence of the H5N1 Gs/GD lineage in Asia. The revised strategy emphasizes a systems approach to contextualize the threat of HPAI against the backdrop of other global concerns. The vision is a world with effective HPAI prevention and control along poultry value chains that supports the protection of domestic animals, wildlife, the environment and humans, and aligns with the Executive summary sustainable transformation of agrifood systems.
