“The PPR GEP will, through the strengthening of veterinary services, make an important contribution to One Health.
The meeting aims to showcase cross-cutting themes and lessons learned from eradication campaigns for both animal and human diseases, in order to better advocate for disease eradication programmes, including PPR GEP, and to inform the formulation of the second phase of PPR GEP.”
