Engaging church missions and non-governmental organizations in Newcastle Disease (ND) Control

Christian missions and other small non-government organizations (in this paper referred together as ‘NGOs’) are doing some of the most effective and sustainable agriculture and food security work in developing countries. NGOs are able to innovate and include a package or menu of community options in villages in rural areas. They can be responsive to the interests of communities, and promote a sustainable model of rural poultry vaccination sometimes more effectively than the district or local government alone.
