The General Union of Tunisian Veterinarians (UGMVT) and the Municipality of Tunis are organizing a collaborative day to celebrate World Rabies Day. This event will include representatives from the Ministries of Health, Agriculture (including CRDA Tunis and DSSB), and Environment, along with public health officials, animal welfare associations, veterinary associations (such as IVSA), and representatives from international organizations like the FAO and WOAH.

Our action plan includes:

  1. A week of informative sessions for children in primary schools using GARC tools.
  2. A roundtable discussion with animal and human health professionals to develop a joint action plan.
  3. Community engagement and interaction with pet owners, featuring a free vaccination day for dogs and cats.

We plan to launch a comprehensive communication campaign, including media coverage on TV, radio, and newspapers, to ensure we reach a broad audience.
