World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE)
Creation of the United Nations
1924 20031945
An intergovernmental organisation founded in 1924 preceding the United Nations
178 Member Countries in 2013• OIE – 12 regional and sub-regional offices
Science-based standards
Surveillance, control, trade, veterinary public health, diagnosticsmedicinal products, food safety, quality of veterinary services, legislation
Terrestrial animals, aquatic animals and bees
Collecting global disease intelligence
OIE Member Countries must notify important disease information to OIE
GLEWSCombines and coordinates the alert and response mechanisms of OIE, FAO and WHO – tracking rumours about diseases
..sharing of responsibilities and coordinating global activities to address health risks at the animal-human-ecosystem interfaces
…preventing animal and public health risks attributable to zoonoses and animal diseases impacting food security.
Health systems strengthening
• Addressing health threats at the human-animal-environment interface has historically been:– disease by disease– in response to events
• WHO, OIE and FAO have been shifting the focus towards good governance and national health systems strengthening to enhance countries’ abilities to respond to challenges and emerging challenges
IHR Monitoring FrameworkPVS Pathway
With support of the World Bank, OIE and WHO are currently investigating a more harmonised approach in national
capacity assessment for zoonotic disease management using the PVS and IHR frameworks
- assessment tools and indicators
Zoonotic disease can only be controlled through effective cross sectoral collaboration
Focus shifting towards national health systems strengthening and detection and control of zoonotic pathogens at their animal source
• Good governance – better compliance with international standards & regulations
• Surveillance/early detection/rapid response
• Data collection, risk assessment, risk management, risk communication
Strong public health systems need to be coordinated and aligned with strong animal health systems – Tripartite is developing tools and mechanisms to work together
