Surveillance and Information Sharing Operational Tool (SIS OT)

Zoonotic diseases pose risks to both animal and human health, and can impact livelihoods, economies, and food and health security. Surveillance is essential to monitor, early detect, and respond to zoonotic disease events.

The efficiency of the coordinated surveillance system for zoonotic diseases relies on the capacity to collaborate across relevant sectors and disciplines to share information and jointly analyze data.
