Addressing Stakeholder Needs
The AVIS approach recognises that different
stakeholders in animal health and production have different
needs, but common standards link all actions and interventions.
The Overview module gives the
non-specialist a rapid and authoritative introduction
to the key issues concerning a given disease. Further
modules address the specific stakeholders. You may sample
the AVIS Overviews on the FAO Website:
www.fao.org/AGA/AGAH/EMPRES/GEMP.htm
