Webinar: Launch of Competency and Curricula guidelines for Community Animal Health Workers

WOAH recognises the crucial role of adequately trained Community Animal Health Workers (CAHWs) in promoting animal health and supporting veterinary services. To enhance the skills and knowledge of CAHWs, WOAH has developed Competency and Curriculum Guidelines. These guidelines will serve to enhance CAHWs skills, effectiveness and their proper integration within the veterinary workforce. This initiative aims to strengthen Veterinary Services, especially in rural and underserved areas, by ensuring that CAHWs are well-equipped to provide essential animal healthcare. 

With this new initiative, there are many more novelties in the pipeline from WOAH and its partners, Vétérinaires sans Frontières International and the Ohio State University.  

To disseminate these updates globally, WOAH hosted three webinars to launch the guidelines.
