The Global Alliance for Rabies Control is a non-profit organization that aims to increase awareness of the continuing threat of rabies around the world. It promotes education about rabies, supports rabies control projects to demonstrate how the impact of this disease can be lessened, and advocates at an international level for increased resources for rabies prevention and control. == Organization and Aims== The Global Alliance for Rabies Control,〔Global Alliance for Rabies Control (), accessed November 16th, 2010.〕 has two branches: The Alliance for Rabies Control, established in Scotland in 2006 (registered charity No. SC 037712); and the headquarters of the organization, The Global Alliance for Rabies Control, established in 2007 in the USA (a 501c3 organization). It is dedicated to eliminating rabies in both humans and animals. The Alliance brings together partners involved in rabies prevention and control to address rabies in the areas of the world where it is endemic or where people and animals are most at risk. The group’s mission〔Global Alliance for Rabies Control Website (), accessed November 16th, 2010.〕 is to prevent human rabies deaths, and to alleviate the burden of rabies in animal species. It acts as a coordinator for its global community of advocates, providing information and educational resources which allow them to take action in their own communities. The Alliance’s patron is the author Alexander McCall Smith〔Alexander McCall Smith (), accessed November 16th, 2010.〕 who recently produced a film〔Alexander McCall Smith (), accessed November 16th, 2010.〕 on their behalf during a visit to a rabies control project in Tanzania. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Global Alliance for Rabies Control」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
