WOAH 92nd general session of the world assembly of delegates

The World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH) 92nd general session of the world assembly of delegates will take place from 25–29 May 2025 at the Maison de la Chimie in Paris, France. 

This high-level, invitation-only event will bring together representatives from 183 WOAH members, international partner organizations, observer countries and key stakeholders. 

Among the key decisions to be made, the assembly will consider and potentially approve an application by the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) to become a One Health collaborating centre, a significant milestone for ILRI's role in advancing integrated approaches to animal, human and environment health.

A highlight of the session will be a dedicated forum on vaccines and vaccination, bringing together WOAH delegates, experts, civil society and the private sector. 

The forum will address challenges to vaccine development and implementation in disease control strategies. Discussions will focus on integrating vaccination into national programs and facilitating safe international trade of animals and animal products.
