Dear All For encouraging the owners ( specially the small ones) to participate in the vaccination campaign and to follow the control program , free vaccination or even sometimes incentives are not enough, I believe that an important campaign of communication and awarness should prepare the road for the control and vaccination, I propose to include this issue under the socio-economics, and socio-economics to be a main theme, we face in so many cases, that some small owners are not interested in vaccination of their animals even free of charge, specially in the less developed regions. this an important element to be considered.

With moderator's question Dear Paul, From a socio-economic perspective, it's not only the theme of justification which will benefit from detailed socio-economic analysis . Coordination and implementation will benefit from a socio-economic analyses that focus on farming systems, livelihoods, value chains, incentives for participation was as well looking at the cost-sharing/ co-funding based on distribution of benefits of control. Lastly, disease surveillance and vaccination strategies will benefit from a cost-effectiveness and response capacity analysis that will identify the best bet strategies. Tabitha Kimani Socio-economist, FAO, Nairobi. Thank you Tabitha. Would you recommend that Socio-economics be a Main Theme in its own right or a cross-cutting sub-theme? Kind regards, Paul. ________________________________ To unsubscribe from the FAO-AnimalHealth-L list, click the following link: https://listserv.fao.org/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=FAO-AnimalHealth-L&A=1 ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the FAO-AnimalHealth-L list, click the following link: https://listserv.fao.org/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=FAO-AnimalHealth-L&A=1
