The aim of this international initiative is to federate the scientific community working on epidemiological modeling in animal health. By fostering collaboration and friendly competition rather than rivalry, the initiative seeks to promote the sharing of best modeling practices and improve access to critical data in the field. Additionally, it aims to develop new methods, address current modeling challenges, facilitate model comparison and ensemble modeling, and strengthen interactions with end-users and stakeholders.

This initiative is supported by INRAE (French National Research Institute for Agriculture, Food and the Environment) and the Animal Health department.
