dc.description.abstractThe article reports on a scoping study to assess management of zoonotic emerging infectious diseases (EIDs) in three countries in Southeast Asia. Zoonotic EIDs occur at the interface of animal and human health. Vulnerability to zoonotic EIDs is strongly influenced by poverty, inequality, and disempowerment. Addressing these socioeconomic and political aspects is a prerequisite for lasting health improvements. The study found that a promising development in many countries was the establishment of a specific intersectoral body for coordination and management of communicable diseases. Confused and overlapping mandates are an impediment to disease control.en
