We are now a couple of weeks away from World Rabies Day 2018!

And this year, more than ever, you can be part of the campaign by SHARING THE MESSAGE IN YOUR REGION to SAVE A LIFE.

Contribute to spread the word and enhance the visibility of OIE actions on rabies…

… through your regional website!

Share the OIE Communication tools or the link to the OIE global Rabies Portal (www.oie.int/rabies) on your regional website.

Including:

• General information on rabies;
• Posters & Infographics;

• Information sheet;
• Publications;
• Videos and short animations;
• Success stories from the countries -> We are working on new ones, if you have any proposal from your region, don’t hesitate to share it with us.

As well, you can share the tools with the regional network helping us to increase the impact and the dissemination of the campaign at national level.

Please, consider that the Communication Unit will send the tools to all the OIE Delegates and Focal Points for Communication next week.
