The World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH) today launched the PREVENT Forum, a new five-year public-private platform designed to strengthen animal disease prevention, primarily through improved vaccination strategies.
The PREVENT Forum will convene governments, vaccine manufacturers, regulators, producer groups, veterinary professionals, donors and intergovernmental organisations in a structured, year-round dialogue to improve animal disease prevention by focusing on vaccination.
The Forum’s work is organised around seven priority areas reflected in its name: Planning, Regulatory pathways, Economic evidence, Vaccine access, Equity, National strategies and Trade. Each area reflects a barrier where progress requires the public and private sectors to work more closely together.
Following its first global technical session in October 2026, the Forum will aim to collectively build a Declaration setting a global vision for overcoming existing barriers to animal vaccination.
