Valentina -Introduction To Animal Health Surveillance

Welcome to "Introduction to Animal Health Surveillance," the new podcast episode with Valentina Busin, EuFMD Capacity Development and Learning Specialist. In this podcast, Valentina shares her expertise in supporting countries and veterinary services in their preparedness and control of FAST diseases. At the EuFMD, we prioritize the development of training tools, collaborating closely with leading experts in the field to create a range of courses, some of which are open-access and available on our virtual learning webpage. Valentina's expertise includes passive surveillance, a fundamental pillar of animal health surveillance that emphasizes early disease recognition and prompt reporting, particularly crucial for fast diseases. Our open-access course aims to enhance the general understanding of surveillance systems in the context of animal health. It provides valuable insights into how each of us can effectively contribute to reducing the impact of transboundary diseases. With a duration of approximately one hour, this course serves as an engaging and useful tool for various audiences, including veterinarians, paraveterinarians, and farmers, ultimately increasing the likelihood of reporting suspicions of FAST diseases. Join us on this journey as we explore valuable and interactive ways to increase capacity in the sector of animal health surveillance, ensuring successful prevention and control of FAST diseases.
