France and Spain have been fighting against bovine tuberculosis (TB) for years, a disease with a high economic and social impact on the livestock sector and which poses a risk to public health. This project aims to create and consolidate a multidisciplinary transboundary R & D & I network. Its objective is to strength links and stablish synergies between different assets of the trans-Pyrenean region to generate greater knowledge and develop innovative tools that provide solutions to each of the challenges: Improve the specificity of the diagnosis, increase the biosecurity of the farms and reduce the risk of infection from wild and domestic reservoirs, control TB in goats and improve communication and the acceptability of Health Programs by the different actors involved. The expected results include: The characterization of animal TB risks in the region and optimization of its management, the development of communication and training strategies for the people involved in the eradication programs, the validation of new diagnostic methods and reagents; and the evaluation of vaccines and TB control tools. These results will contribute to the policies of animal TB eradication promoted by the European Commission and will benefit the productive sectors of the region and reduce the risk to public health.
