• Background
• The creation of the RAHC reflects a common will
  of OIE of FAO and UA IBAR to continue an ancient
  collaboration developed because of their
  complementary mandates in the field of animal
  health in Africa.
• January 2006 2nd international Conference on
  IAHP in Beijing (China) recommended the creation
  of Regional Centers of Animal Health.
• February 2006 The 1st outbreak of IAHP in Africa
  is reported, in the North of Nigeria.

7

• April 25, 2006 These events led the 3
  institutions to set up the first Regional Animal
  Health Centre (RAHC), in Bamako, a technical
  platform of coordination.
• December 2006 Mali rehabilitated the buildings
  of the RAHC (100 million FCFA) to give the best
  working conditions to the experts of the three
  institutions.
• October 20, 2007 Official inauguration of the
  RAHC by the Prime Minister of Mali Mr. Modibo
  Sidibe.

• Each institution contributes to the
  implementation and operation of the RAHC.
  Complementarity of FAO, OIE and the UA-IBAR
  missions built up a long time collaboration,
  which proved reliable particularly during the
  implementation of the PARC and PACE programmes.
  This synergy continues through the ALive platform
  1 . In 2004 collaboration was reinforced by
  the signature of the GF-TADs 2 agreement
  between OIE and FAO. In Africa, this initiative
  includes the AU-IBAR.
• 1 The ALive Platform (Africa Livestock)
  gathers African and international institutions,
  institutes of research and formation and donnors
  .

CONCLUSION
FAO through partnership and decentralisation is
giving the best frame to its strategy. The
impulse of OIE IBAR FAO RAHC in each sub regional
unit, should allow better understanding and
response to national concerns at field level,
and, hopefully, efficacious and efficient
solutions
