Synopsis (short abstract) The FAO Emergency Centre for Transboundary Animal Diseases (ECTAD) is working with member countries to strengthen the capacity of their animal health sector since the emergence of highly pathogenic avian influenza in the region in 2004. It continues to support countries to reduce the risks of animal health threats that can devastate livelihoods and food security. By building countries’ capacities to prevent, detect and respond to these threats, FAO ECTAD plays an essential role in protecting the health of people and animals, and safeguarding farmers’ livelihoods, economy and food security. The FAO ECTAD implements several activities that contribute to capacity development, addressing cross-cutting issues and risk mitigation. The FAO ECTAD in Asia and the Pacific operates in several countries including Bangladesh, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Myanmar, Nepal, Papua New Guinea, Thailand and Viet Nam.
