Reports
The EuFMD works with Member Nations on their preparedness, with European neighbors to put in place sustainable control programmes, to support and promote the global strategy for Progressive Control of Foot-and-mouth and Similar Transboundary animal Disease (FAST) through close partnership with DG-SANTE of the European Commission, with the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations and the World Organisation of Animal Health.
Th EuFMD produces the following reports, also in collaboration with partners and stakeholders including:
Quarterly Reports
The Commission publishes a quarterly report on the FMD Disease situation, based on information sources which include databases such as EMPRES-AH/GLEWS, EMPRES-i, WOAH, WAHID, WRLFMD. Check the archives for older reports.
FAST Reports
The FAST quarterly report of significant events provides relevant and regular risk information to risk managers operating in EuFMD Member Nations and neighboring countries. The constant monitoring of the epidemiological situation as well as the information obtained from control and surveillance strategies in the European neighbourhood can contribute to increase awareness on major animal disease threats for Europe and the regions of North Africa, Middle East and South East European Neighbourhood.

Regional FMD Roadmap reports
Progress made on the Global FMD Control Strategy is assessed at regional level using roadmap platforms and reports are on the GFTADS website.
World Reference Laboratory for Foot-and-Mouth Disease
The reports of the World Reference Laboratory for FMD (WRLFMD), are distributed quarterly by focal points of the FAO and WOAH Reference laboratories for FMD.
Regional Workshops
Regional workshops often can help to create an improved system for monitoring and evaluation, improve capacities, methods and guidelines for application progressive FMD control strategy. In addition, coordination meetings can help improve international FMD reference laboratory services and their contributions to regional epidemiology surveillance networks.
