Grant Description

From June 6-8, 2016, In a joint effort with Subject Matter Experts from Chile, Colombia, Argentina, and the United States Department of Agriculture, IICA developed a regional workshop for all veterinary services in Central America to follow the 2016-2020 OIE Strategic Plan.

The objectives of the workshop were 1) to sensitize national veterinary services about the importance of integrated risk management for a resilient agriculture, and 2) to identify the interventions required to ensure the efficacy of these management techniques in the face of new challenges.
