Strengthening Veterinary Services in Asia 4 th Steering Committee Highly Pathogenic Emerging and Re-Emerging Diseases (HPED) Programme Session 3 Progress on the OIE component Tokyo (Japan) 16 July 2013 Dr Agnes Poirier HPED Programme Coordinator OIE Sub Representation SEA Ms Emily Tagliaro Project officer OIE World Animal Health and Welfare Fund
Reporting on results 3rd HPED Steering Committee - recommendation: «That the next Steering Committee should, on a basis of an evaluation, identify the strengths, weaknesses, lessons learned and best practices of the programme particularly taking into consideration the perspective of country representatives» Further to recommendations from donors, the OIE World Animal Health and Welfare Fund together developed a results framework to define and apply metrics to measure the benefits and outcomes of World Fund initiatives, including activities implemented in the framework of the HPED Programme
Results Oriented Mission «The intervention is based on sound methodology and uses well designed tools; it is efficient and has good potential for impact but would futher benefit, in terms of effectiveness and sustainability, from more systematic feedback/documentation on tangibile benefits» Recommendations: 1. Maximise the use of resources for the benefit of the Vaccine Banks and rapidly request no-cost extension 2. Further refine communication plan 3. Update logframe with measureable outcome and impact indicators 4. Improve communication on and use of OIE PVS Pathway reports
Results Oriented Mission : response R1. Rapidly request no-cost extension R3. Update logframe with measureable outcome and impact indicators Request for no-cost extension sent to EU on 16 May 2013 Revised logframe sent on to the EU on 14 June 2013 Addendum N.2 last signed on 4 July 2013 New project end date is 7 December 2014 This presentation reports on results based on this revised logframe.
