The Workshop on African Swine Fever surveillance and wildlife management is organised within the Better Training for Safer Food initiative.

The workshop will take place from October 25th to 27th in Prague – Czech Republic, and will be held in English language.

The same training was already carried out last year in Minsk from November 16th to 18th 2016, and delegates from Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, and Slovakia took part in the training. We kindly request that all countries nominate at least one participant responsible for wildlife management (officials from national agencies dealing with forestry /wildlife management).

This is related to the need to strengthen links and facilitate communication between Veterinary Services and other stakeholders in the country.
