The CVL will provide scientific support to satisfy local demand and will offer assistance to other Countries in the region (Southern and Central Africa).

The kick off meeting, which will be held at the International Centre for Veterinary Training and Information “F. Gramenzi” (CIFIV) in Teramo (Italy), will offer the opportunity to focus on the main project areas and analyze the best strategies to be followed in order to achieve the objectives of the project.
