Resumen
Descripción
Outbreaks of livestock diseases can have devastating impacts on people’s livelihoods, and over 70 percent of animal disease can spill over to humans. Strong surveillance systems are therefore critical to identify and respond to human and animal threats rapidly, and to develop efficient disease control programmes. To support countries in building their national veterinary surveillance systems, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) developed the Surveillance Evaluation Tool (SET). SET provides countries with a comprehensive and repeatable methodology to evaluate animal disease surveillance at all levels (central, intermediate and field), leading to the development of specific recommendations for improvement in the form of a prioritised action plan. An evaluation mission in Indonesia was conducted in August 2019 in close collaboration with the country’s veterinary services. The validation of the SET outputs and recommendations by the Chief Veterinary Officer (CVO) of Indonesia in the form of a report will provide guidance to the veterinary services as well as financial and technical partners on ways improve Indonesia’s animal and zoonotic disease surveillance, and will contribute to a multifaceted approach to capacity building in the country, and in the region.
