Progressive Control of Transboundary Animal Diseases (GF-TADs)

Global Framework for the Progressive Control of Transboundary Animal Diseases (GF-TADs)

The GF-TADs is a joint FAO/WOAH initiative, which combines the strengths of both organisations to achieve agreed common objectives. The GF-TADs is a facilitating mechanism which will endeavour to empower regional alliances in the fight against transboundary animal diseases (TADs), to provide for capacity building and to assist in establishing programmes for the specific control of certain TADs based on regional priorities.
