ASF is still present in ten Member States in infected and regionalised areas of the European Union, as well as in an uncontrolled manner in Asia.

Global action and effective collaboration and communication between all relevant stakeholders is urgently needed.

The European Commission informed on the outcome of the high-level international conference "The future of global pork production under the threat of ASF".

Many ministers took the floor and highlighted the need for: – differentiated regional approach – more proactive awareness raising campaigns by the European Commission – continuous financial support for ASF-related efforts.

Only with a long-term global strategy including significant resource allocations – both human and financial – as well as scientific and technical collaboration on research, ASF can be tackled. Transparent communication, cooperation, sharing of experiences and best practices on preparedness, prevention and control can reduce the risks that come with international travel and illegal cross-border activities. Targeted awareness campaigns and risk communication strategies are also essential. The management of wild boar population is a pre-requisite.
