Safe Trade and Foot-and-Mouth Disease Control - Training course
Online,
Following a request from FAO Pakistan, the EuFMD, together with the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE), proposed a regional virtual training with the focus on “Safe Trade and FMD” for Pakistan, Islamic Republic of Iran and Turkey. This introductory workshop provided an overview of the principles and international standards that govern safe trade of animals and animal products.
The main objective of the workshop was to assist countries in the European neighbourhood to understand the importance of safer trade and use of the World Organisation for Animal Health Terrestrial Code which sets standards for trade in animals and animal products, consistent with the World Trade Organization on the Application of Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures (SPS Agreement).
