Process of the Consultation Facility
Alliance
Governmental Consultation Facility
The goal of the Consultation Facility is to provide context-specific multidisciplinary consultancy services from Alliance experts to governments/governmental institutions in countries with a high risk of novel diseases of zoonotic origin to prevent spill-over infections.
The expertise of more than 180+ member organisations and individual experts in the Alliance will be used to put together those interdiscplinary teams.
The Consultation Facility specializes on medium-term, primary preventive and context-specific government advisory services with concrete results in the context of health risks in wildlife trade and consumption along the entire contact and trade chain.
Effective and sustainable counseling requires thorough policy analysis/screening to identify suitable governments.
Existing political action or other political regulations regarding the intersection of wildlife and human health for example, are particulary helpful at the beginning of the consultation.
The facility was launched in December 2023. For this reason, the lessons learned will only be communicated in the course of 2024.
