Representing the Environment Protection Agency (EPA-SL), Mary Sia Foyah recently took part in an ECOWAS regional workshop focused on highly pathogenic avian influenza in Abidjan, Ivory Coast. The workshop aimed to address the contingency plans of Member States in combating influenza and emphasized the importance of revising and validating the ECOWAS One Health Strategy and Governance Manual of the Regional One Health Coordination Mechanism.

During the workshop, experts from various fields collaborated to ensure that the documents are robust, comprehensive, and suitable for adoption by the #ECOWAS Ministers responsible for animal, human, and environmental health. The focus on utilizing a one-health approach reflected the current epidemiological situation and highlighted the need for a coordinated effort to combat avian influenza effectively.

The participation of EPA-SL in this workshop underscores the agency’s commitment to promoting environmental health and sustainability within the region. By contributing their expertise to this important initiative, EPA-SL is actively involved in shaping policies and strategies that will benefit both human and animal populations while safeguarding the environmen

The workshop was a valuable opportunity for stakeholders to come together, share knowledge, and work towards a common goal of enhancing public health and environmental protection in the ECOWAS region. The outcomes of this collaborative effort are expected to have a positive impact on future efforts to prevent and control highly pathogenic avian influenza.
