How can animal health systems support small-scale poultry producers and traders? Reflections on experience with HPAI.

This paper builds on lessons learned from the world’s reaction to HPAI in order to identify ways in which animal health systems may better include smallholders in disease monitoring, surveillance and control activities both in “peace time” and in emergency situations. It argues that only by fully engaging poultry keepers can the negative impacts of disease be reduced. However, this is not a trivial enterprise and calls for re-drawing the map of animal health institutions.
