The Participatory Epidemiology website was set up in January 2005. It currently houses material on veterinary uses of participatory epidemiology, drawn mainly from east Africa and the Horn of Africa.
The website has information on two projects:
- Participatory Approaches to Veterinary Epidemiology – this project conducted field research in southern Sudan, Kenya and Tanzania to assess the reliability and validity of participatory methods
- Community-based Animal Health and Participatory Epidemiology Unit – the unit was set-up to promote policy and institutional change to enable community-based animal health delivery systems, and promote the wider use of participatory approaches and methods in veterinary institutions.
