Webinar on confronting avian influenza in Asia and the Pacific: Global situation, vaccination and risk dynamics

Join us for the second ENTRVST scientific webinar, focusing on avian influenza — a growing threat with significant implications for Asia and the Pacific region.

As avian influenza continues to evolve globally, it's crucial for veterinary professionals, policymakers and industry stakeholders in our region to stay informed and equipped with effective strategies. This webinar will bridge critical knowledge gaps about the current global avian influenza situation, vaccination practices and misconceptions, and the risk factors and settings that drive transmission along poultry production and distribution networks in the Asia-Pacific contexts.

Agenda highlights:

• Global situation on highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) and FAO’s contribution to risk management
  Dr Nick Lyons, FAO headquarters
  
• Avian influenza vaccination: Key considerations and addressing misconceptions
  Dr Leslie Sims, Asia Pacific Veterinary Information Services, Australia
  
• Risk environments: Transmission dynamics of avian influenza viruses along poultry production and distribution networks
  Dr Guillaume Fournié, National Research Institute for Agriculture, Food and the Environment (INRAE), France
