History SEAFMD-RCU established in 1997, funded by AusAID to coordinate FMD management in the region. Offices within the Thailand Government DLD campus in Phaya Thai, Bangkok, Thailand SRR-SEA formally created in March 2010 by agreement between the DLD of the Royal Government of Thailand and the OIE. The establishment of SRR-SEA reflected a need for a broadening of its activities to coordinate not only an expanding FMD Campaign, but also contribute to HPED and zoonoses activities, strengthening of VS, and deliver improvements to OIE representation in the Region. Support for this expanded scope has been provided by Thailand, AusAID, the EU and USAID among others. The OIE SRR SEA has good collaborative links with other International agencies such as FAO, WHO, and ACIAR.
OIE 5th Strategic Plan (2011-2015) The OIE 5th Strategic Plan includes Six Strategic Objectives (SO) and three Cross-cutting Areas (CCA) SO-1 : International Communication of Animal Disease and Zoonosis Information SO-2 : Development and Implementation of Scientifically Based Standards and Guidelines SO-3 : Prevention, Control And Eradication of Animal Diseases, including Zoonoses SO-4 : Ensuring the Scientific Excellence of Information and Advice SO-5 : Capacity Building for National Veterinary Services SO-6 : Strengthening the Organisation s Influence on Policy Design, Applied Research and Governance CCA-1 : "One Health" Framework CCA-2 : Cooperative Agreements CCA-2 : Communication and Public Information

SO2 SO-2.1 LIST OF STATUS DISEASES Scientifically valid list of diseases for which "status" is recognised by the OIE. SO-2.2 STANDARDS DEVELOPMENT Up-to-date and relevant standards in the Terrestrial Animal Health Code and Aquatic Animal Health Code. Guidelines for determining the impact of climate- and environmentally induced changes on the provisions of the Codes. Guidelines for reducing the risks of infectious diseases at the animal-human-ecosystem interface in accordance with the One Health framework. SO-2.3 VETERINARY LEGISLATION Veterinary Legislation adequate for the improvement of governance and the ability to meet the standards and guidelines contained in the relevant OIE Codes and Manuals. SO-2.4 DIAGNOSTIC TESTS AND PHARMACEUTICALS Provide standards for diagnostic tests and veterinary pharmaceutical products (in particular, vaccines) and certification of diagnostic assays.
SO3 SO-3.1 ERADICATION OF CRITICAL DISEASES Global eradication or containment of diseases adversely affecting animal and veterinary public health, food security or trade, or with negative impacts on poverty. SO-3.2 CONTROL STRATEGIES AND CONTINGENCIES Develop strategies for the control of transboundary diseases and their implications to trade and protocols for establishing health and trade contingency plans to face health events.

STRIVES STRrengthening Initiative for Veterinary Services
The OIE PVS Pathway STRIVES: Key Areas of Capacity Building Vet Legislation including VSBs Veterinary Education VS Strategic Planning
PVS Pathway in Vietnam THE VIETNAMESE VETERINARY SERVICES ROADMAP NOTE This Roadmap template is provided to the Vietnamese VS as the final output of a four day strategic planning mission to Vietnam under the OIE/AusAID Programme for Strengthening Veterinary Services in SE Asia. The template is designed to assist DAH along their PVS pathway and specifically the drafting of their VS Roadmap, due for submission to Parliament in October 2010. The template incorporates findings of OIE PVS reports (most significantly the recent OIE Gap Analysis); suggested Roadmap section headings; notes to guide what types of information might be contained under each heading, dot point suggestions as to relevant content under each heading for Vietnam, and specific references to relevant parts of the PVS reports for further detail. The Vietnamese VS have committed to using this template in the drafting (in Vietnamese language) and finalisation of their Roadmap, such that it is adapted using OIE PVS findings. Proper understanding of this document requires a strong understanding of the PVS Gap analysis report. It is recommended it be read twice beforehand. Document Purpose: To outline the future directions, priorities and key activities for the sustainable strengthening of the Vietnamese Veterinary Services over the five year period between 2011 and 2015. The Vietnamese Veterinary Services comprises national, provincial and field veterinary staff of the Vietnamese government, and their private sector partners and stakeholders. This document aims to guide Veterinary Services planning, investment and implementation by the Vietnamese Government and relevant partners, such as international agencies, donors and non-government organisations. Audience: Vietnamese Veterinary Services, political decision makers, other relevant government agencies, Veterinary Services stakeholders, relevant international donors and agencies, relevant trading partners, and national and international communities in general. September 2010 Note For simplicity, we have referred to the title of the document as a Roadmap with an understanding that alternative names such as Strategy, Strategic Plan or Planning Proposal may be used when the document is drafted in Vietnamese. It is important to note that language translation always presents issues when working across cultures. Wording that make good sense and is clear in English may not be in Vietnamese, and vice versa. Some liberty has been taken where direct translation of Vision, Mission, Goals or Objectives (that were workshopped in Vietnamese) did not seem to translate so clearly into English.

Vaccine Bank Rabies when justified at the regional level to save public health funds and reduce the socio-economic cost of post exposure treatments of humans Possible expansion to other highly pathogenic emerging and re-emerging transboundary animal diseases in the Region
Capacity Building: Good Governance Maintain continuing education of OIE Country Delegates and National OIE focal points in the country specialised in the following different fields: (i) sanitary information systems (WAHIS); (ii) animal production food safety; (iii) veterinary products (July 2012) (iv) aquatic animal diseases; (v) animal welfare; (vi) Wildlife (April 2012) (vii) Veterinary Services Communication.
IDENTIFY No this is not an acronym!
Emerging Pandemic Threat Program (EPT) Early identification of and response to dangerous pathogens in animals before they can become significant threats to human health PREDICT RESPOND IDENTIFY PREVENT To implement an early warning system that addresses the role of wildlife in facilitating the emergence and spread of new diseases To strengthen countries' capacity to identify and respond to new disease outbreaks in a quick and sustainable manner To support the development of laboratory networks and strengthen diagnostic capacities in those areas thought most likely to be the source of emerging diseases To build a behavior-change response to infectious diseases and support efforts to characterize highrisk practices that increase the potential for spreading such diseases
To accomplish this outcome, the IDENTIFY project aims to provide sustainable inputs into: 1. The development of guidance and policy for national laboratories 2. Promoting laboratory quality (e.g. biosafety/biosecurity, quality assurance, accurate diagnosis, and specimen collection and handling and shipping) 3. Strengthening laboratory capacity in support of surveillance and response 4. Enhanced laboratory networking.
