Animal Health System Support for One Health Program (AHSSOH)

The development objective of Animal Health System Support for One Health (OH) Project for India is to increase the quality and coverage of animal health services for livestock farmers and improve One Health coordination in Participating States. The Program will be implemented over five years (FY23-28). The Program for Results (PforR) focuses on building systemic capacity for animal health management and OH coordination. As such, it will enhance the impact of the larger government program expenditures. The Program adds value to the Livestock Health and Disease Control Program (LHDCP). The Program will support five Results Area (RAs): (i) Strengthening Institutional Capacity for Implementation and Coordination of the OH Framework; (ii) Enhancing Diagnostic Capacity for Effective and Timely Disease Diagnosis; (iii) Increasing Access to Quality Veterinary Services; (iv) Enhancing Surveillance Capacity for Effective Disease Reporting and Monitoring; and (v) Increasing Community Awareness of Animal Disease Management Practices and Zoonoses.
