Descripción
"Operational Research in Indonesia for More Effective Control of Avian Influenza" commenced in Indonesia in July 2008. Funded by USAID and the World Bank, the project aims to develop an evidence base for the selection of effective and feasible control alternatives in backyard poultry in Indonesia. These alternatives include mass voluntary vaccination against avian influenza (AI), and AI plus Newcastle disease and are implemented in the context of ongoing field Participatory Disease Surveillance and Response (PDSR) activities. The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) is supporting local government and the Ministry of Agriculture to implement the control strategies, and providing ongoing support for PDSR field activities. The FAO team works in close collaboration with JSI Deliver (responsible for procurement of vaccine, cold chain equipment and vaccination supplies, and providing logistical support for project implementation) and the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) ( responsible for the design of ORI HPAI, supervision of data collection and analysis of the research results).
