Our goal is to enhance the health and welfare of farmed livestock, improve human well-being, and protect the shared environment by strengthening control measures for animal and agriculture-associated health risks. We adopt a One Health approach, recognizing the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health. By addressing disease risks at this interface, we aim to prevent the spread of zoonotic and emerging infectious diseases that threaten public health and food security.
Our work combines improved disease prevention strategies, sustainable farming practices, and responsible resource management to reduce the burden of livestock diseases. This includes developing and deploying effective vaccines, diagnostics, and treatment options, while promoting biosecurity and improved animal husbandry practices.
Through these efforts, we aim to increase the supply of safe, nutritious animal-source foods, contributing to improved nutrition for people. This integrated approach also supports better livelihoods for farmers, strengthens food systems, and promotes environmental sustainability by minimizing the ecological footprint of livestock production. By addressing both animal disease management and broader health risks, we contribute to building resilient communities and ensuring global health security
