Objective:
STAR-IDAZ is a global network of animal disease research funders and programme owners established to improve coordination of research activities on the major infectious diseases of livestock and zoonoses so as to hasten the delivery of improved control methods.
Approach:
STAR-IDAZ includes co-ordination of research relevant to emerging and major infectious diseases of livestock, including aquatic animals and managed bees, and those infections of livestock that may carry the risk of disease threat to human health. Diseases of wildlife will also be considered where they are identified as reservoirs of infection with emerging and major infectious diseases of humans or production animals.
