OIE Director General Dr Monique \u00c9loit identified three levels of collaboration with resource partners:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: 12pt;\">Political advocacy, with greater recognition of the OIE\u2019s important role in the Quadripartite* and One Health forums.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: 12pt;\">Advocacy for the role of Veterinary Services in health systems, to increase recognition of their role in prevention, preparedness and resilience, as well as in biodiversity, climate change and gender.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: 12pt;\">Targeted operational activities, including OIE Global Programmes and strategies such as rabies, peste des petits ruminants (PPR), foot and mouth disease (FMD), antimicrobial resistance (AMR), etc.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Participants expressed wide support for the OIE\u2019s strategic outlook and emphasised the Organisation\u2019s longstanding role in international One Health leadership. The OIE\u2019s advocacy for the inclusion of animal and environmental health topics in global discussions on public health is imperative, and its experience in operationalising the One Health concept throughout its Members is exemplary. Following a proliferation of One Health initiatives in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the OIE must work to ensure that efforts are coordinated, well-targeted, and non-duplicative, including through guidance provided by the One Health High Level Expert Panel (OHHLEP).<\/p>\n<p>The OIE values its partnerships with World Fund donors. The Engagement and Investment Department remains available for bilateral discussions with any partners interested in further discussions.<\/p>\n<p>The OIE would like to thank all its donors for their contributions to the World Fund, as well as all those who participated in the Advisory Committee meeting.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-21835\" src=\"https:\/\/oiebulletin.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/WFAC-thank-donors.png\" alt=\"Word Fund Donors\" width=\"704\" height=\"391\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bulletin.woah.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/WFAC-thank-donors.png 704w, https:\/\/bulletin.woah.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/WFAC-thank-donors-300x167.png 300w, https:\/\/bulletin.woah.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/WFAC-thank-donors-600x333.png 600w, https:\/\/bulletin.woah.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/WFAC-thank-donors-134x74.png 134w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 709px) 85vw, (max-width: 909px) 67vw, (max-width: 984px) 61vw, (max-width: 1362px) 45vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Contact: <a href=\"mailto:world.fund@oie.int\">world.fund@oie.int<\/a><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">*Quadripartite: World Health Organization (WHO), Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP)<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The OIE World Animal Health and Welfare Fund (World Fund), a multi-donor trust fund through which the Organisation collects voluntary contributions, has been supporting the OIE to implement critical programmes and deliver against its mandate since 2006.
