This program utilized a ‘One Health’ approach to strengthen surveillance and rapid response systems for animal diseases and food safety. Subsequent efforts transitioned toward agricultural extension, with a workshop in Aden focusing on participatory learning and action methodologies to modernize farmer-centered agricultural planning, supported by the World Bank Group and the FAO. In Egypt, public health preparations included a national vaccination campaign against measles and rubella, with officials reviewing medical readiness in the Sharqia Governorate.
