Managing aflatoxin contamination in Asia using One Health

The purpose of this PPG is to apply a One Health approach to raise awareness in selected Asian countries and enhance their level of preparedness and  understanding in identifying, preventing, predicting, detecting and responding to the health threats presented by Aflatoxin (AF) contamination along key value chains.

Global experts on One Health will work together to develop a regional project proposal for the Asia-Pacific region, for consideration by the STDF and/or other donors, to overcome challenges related to aflatoxin contamination and identify mitigation action approaches for AF management considering environmental, plant, animal and human health aspects.
