The OIE General Session will be held at the “Maison de la Chimie” from Sunday 26 to Friday 31 May 2019 (Friday’s session is exclusively for the OIE Delegates, as it concerns administrative and financial matters).

The World Assembly of OIE Delegates will examine several texts, with a view to adopt, a number of new intergovernmental standards covering animal disease control methods, including those for controlling diseases transmissible to humans, the safety of international trade in animals and animal products, as well as animal welfare. The progress of the implementation of the 6th Strategic Plan (2016-2020) will also be presented.

The following technical item will be presented:

“How external factors (e.g. climate change, conflicts, socio-economics, trading patterns) will impact Veterinary Services, and the adaptations required.”

The first three members of official delegations from OIE Members are exempt from paying the registration fees to participate to the General Session of the World Assembly of OIE Delegates. As previous years, in order to encourage their participation, OIE National Focal Points will be exempt from registration fees in case their country delegation would exceed three persons.

The first two members of official delegations from International Organisations that have signed an agreement with the OIE are exempt from paying the registration fees. For the other eligible organisations, observer countries and territories, only one member is exempt from registration fees. Following reception of the invitation letters sent by the OIE, the official delegations from OIE Member Countries, International Organisations that have signed an agreement with the OIE, other eligible organisations, observer countries and territories must register on a secure website.

Those members of delegations who are not exempt from paying the registration fees are invited to pay them (400€ for OIE Members and International Organisations that have signed an agreement with the OIE; 450€ for observer countries and territories and other eligible organisations) while registering on the secure website (payment online or by bank transfer).
