World Animal Health Information System (WAHIS)

The World Animal Health Information System (WAHIS) is an international platform managed by the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE) that collects and shares data about animal diseases worldwide. It helps countries report outbreaks and monitor disease trends, which supports rapid response and control efforts. WAHIS promotes transparency and collaboration among nations to improve animal health, protect food safety, and prevent diseases from spreading between animals and humans. By providing accurate, timely information, it aids governments, veterinarians, and policymakers in making informed decisions to maintain healthy animal populations globally.
