The WOAH Wildlife Health Framework “Protecting wildlife health to achieve One Health” recognises that multi-sectoral collaborations are needed, linking Veterinary Services with other authorities and professionals in addressing health threats. WOAH is using Guidelines, Standards and risk reduction strategies to identify gaps and needs relevant to spillover events between wildlife, domestic animals and humans.
This “One Health” approach of collaboration and coordination is essential for a sustainable future for wildlife, ecosystems, humans and domestic animals alike. The IUCN/WOAH Guidelines for Wildlife Disease Risk Assessment highlight the importance of involving key stakeholders and working together on hazard identification, risk assessment, risk management and risk communication.
In support of this, the WOAH Regional Representation for Asia and the Pacific (RRAP) organised a workshop in Yugawara, Japan from 13-14 December 2023, bringing together participants involved in risk analysis of a spillover event in Japan.
Dates and location: 13-14 December 2023, Yugawara, Japan
Participation: By invitation
