Laboratory Twining
• facilitate capacity building and networking
• build expertise for the most important animal diseases and zoonoses in priority regions
• provide a more balanced north-south distribution of advanced expertise, allowing more countries to access high quality diagnostic testing and technical knowledge
1414
Laboratory Twining
• formulate science-based animal health control strategies and support the standard setting process of the OIE.
• links an existing OIE Reference Laboratory with a selected candidate laboratory.
• Knowledge and skills are exchanged
1515
• VSBs ensure the control of veterinarians and veterinary para-professionnals
• The strengthening of the VSBs is strategically important for improving the implementation of OIE international standards
• Capacity building activity for developing and in transition countries
• Consists of a transfer of knowledge, training and expertise from a ‘Parent VSB’ to a ‘Candidate VSB’
Veterinary Statutory BodyTwining
1616
• Flexible and adaptable approach, to take into account the diversity of situations: • a country with no VSB and no legislation for
the establishment of such VSB• ‘advanced’ VSB but need to develop a new
function (such as involvement in veterinary education)
Veterinary Statutory BodyTwining
1717
Objectives-To improve compliance with OIE standards on the quality of VS -To improve:
- Licensing / registration of veterinarians and veterinary para-professionals
- Deontology in the veterinary profession- Quality of veterinary education
-It is expected that the ‘candidate’ VSB can become a ‘parent’ VSB and/or ‘regional referent’.
Veterinary Statutory BodyTwining

Veterinary Education Twining
• The OIE and the international community recognise the crucial role of veterinarians throughout national animal health systems/Veterinary Services.
• Furthermore, they recognise the need to ensure an optimal level of fundamental skills to overcome problems related to the surveillance and control of OIE-listed diseases.
• Twinning’ has been adopted by the OIE as a method for improving institutional capacity and expertise in developing and in-transition countries.
1919
Veterinary Education Twining
• Based on: o OIE Guidelines on Veterinary Education Core Curriculum o OIE recommendations on the Competencies of graduating
veterinarians (‘Day 1 graduates’)o the lessons learned from the OIE Veterinary Laboratory Twinning
Programme.
• Involves the creation and supporting a link that facilitates the exchange of knowledge, ideas and experience between two Veterinary Education Establishments.
• Aims to create more centres of excellence for veterinary education in geographic areas that are currently under-represented, to achieve a better balance in the global distribution of well-educated veterinarians.
2020
Veterinary Education Twining
• Each twinning project is a partnership between one or more recognised and preferably accredited Veterinary Education Establishments and a Candidate Veterinary Education Establishment. The first will provide technical assistance, guidance and training.
• The Candidate Establishment may wish at a later stage to eventually achieve accreditation under an existing, well-established accreditation body.
• Objectives for each twinning project are jointly agreed by the OIE and the Directors/Deans of the participants (i.e. the Parent and Candidate Establishments) and endorsed by the National Delegates to the OIE of the countries concerned.
2121
Veterinary Education Twining
• Twinning aims to upgrade veterinary education, especially in relation to the needs of national Veterinary Services, to meet satisfactorily the international standards established by the OIE.
• Twinning is part of the wider OIE initiative to improve the capacity of Veterinary Services in developing countries; it therefore has synergy with the OIE PVS Pathway and the complementary OIE Laboratory Twinning Programme.
