The African Union Pan African Tsetse and Trypanosomiasis Eradication Campaign (AU-PATTEC) Office has the mandate of initiating, supporting and coordinating Tsetse and Trypanosomiais (T&T) eradication in Africa within the shortest time possible. The initiative comprises an international campaign to generate a process of sustained action through the introduction of the necessary support and mechanisms required for the eradication of the tsetse fly and trypanosomiasis from the affected countries. AU-IBAR works closely with AU-PATTEC in spearheading the fight against T&T especially through the International Scientific Council for Trypanosomiais Research and Control (ISCTRC) platform whose secretariat is at AU-IBAR.
