Accelerating Veterinary Vaccines Project

This Project, led by CSIRO, is a vital step towards safeguarding animal health and welfare, food security and biosecurity in Australia, as well as supporting a robust and innovative animal health sector.

Animal Medicines Australia is proud to be a contributing partner on this project.

Accelerating Veterinary Vaccines

Help CSIRO establish Australia as a global leader in delivery and adoption of veterinary vaccine innovation, where cutting-edge vaccine technologies protect animal health, enhance biosecurity, and safeguard our unique ecosystems, food security and agricultural industries.

About the Project

Veterinary vaccines play a critical role in:

  • Animal health and welfare
  • Livestock productivity
  • Biosecurity
  • Food security

However, system-level challenges, including regulatory complexity, supply constraints, and market limitations, prevent many vaccines from reaching the field.

This project takes a whole-of-system approach to understanding how veterinary vaccines move from research to real-world use.

CSIRO are:

  • Mapping vaccine needs across sectors
  • Identifying barriers across regulation, manufacturing, supply, and adoption
  • Assessing emerging technologies
  • Building a national Community of Practice
  • Developing a coordinated Innovation Agenda
