Abstract
The Low Pathogenic Avian Influenza
(LPAI) H5N2 virus was detected in the Dominican Republic
(DR) late last year, causing a serious disruption in
sub-regional trade, poultry production, and food security.
In collaboration with the World Bank, the DR Secretariat of
state for agriculture organized a workshop to share regional
knowledge on preparedness for emergency actions to deal with
avian flu. This note captures interesting themes from the workshop.
