International Standards for Animal Health

International Standards for Animal Health are guidelines developed by organizations like the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) to promote healthy animals and prevent disease spread globally. These standards cover measures for disease detection, control, and prevention, helping countries implement effective policies. They also facilitate safe trade of animals and animal products by ensuring consistent health requirements. Overall, these standards aim to protect animal welfare, safeguard public health, and support the economy by reducing risks associated with animal diseases across borders.
