Program

The Nordic Baltic Contingency Group (NBVCG)

An ongoing project initiated by the Nordic Council of Ministers in 2006. The group has one member, a veterinarian from the veterinary/food safety authority, from each of the Nordic and Baltic countries. The Presidency is rotated between the Nordic countries. The NBVCG conducts seminars, mini-seminars, simulation exercises and other events to facilitate cooperation, sharing of knowledge and networking in the area of animal health and contagious animal diseases. The focus has been on emerging diseases and vector borne diseases, contingency planning and subjects which are relevant in the handling of outbreaks. The group activities are financed by the Nordic Council on a yearly basis, and participation is free. The Norwegian Food Safety Authority plays a key role in the NBVCG
network.
