In the last few years, African swine fever (ASF) has led to a major global crisis in the pork industry, resulting in substantial losses in the pig population worldwide, detrimental socio-economic impacts, and threats to food security. During the 87th General Session of the OIE, the World Assembly of Delegates requested that the OIE produce a global initiative to control ASF. The initiative has been released and it is now publicly available.
