2015 – Africa – OIE Regional Commission – Bouslikhane CROSS BORDER MOVEMENTS OF ANIMALS AND ANIMAL PRODUCTS AND THEIR RELEVANCE TO THE EPIDEMIOLOGY OF ANIMAL DISEASES IN AFRICA

This report reviews the current context with regard to livestock mobility in Africa and the associated constraints. Concrete examples of transboundary animal diseases of relevance to the continent will be used to shed light on the role of cross-border movements in the persistence and spread of these diseases as well as the sanitary and non-sanitary constraints hampering their prevention and control.
