Role of Kenya Tsetse and Trypanosomiasis Eradication Council (KENTTEC) in Control of African Animal Trypanosomiasis (AAT)/Nagana

The role of the Kenya Tsetse and Trypanosomiasis Eradication Council (KENTTEC) in the control of animal trypanosomiasis is premised on the fact that a large proportion of animal trypanosomiasis in Kenya is tsetse transmitted. Tsetse distribution in Kenya is characterized by eight discontinuous belts defined by topographical, environmental and land-use. KENTTEC's strategy for control of African animal trypanosomiasis is based on use of community-based organizations for spraying of livestock, control of the vector using various devices such as targets and traps, and development of strategies and policies for use of land after the intervention. The council has developed linkage with research institutions for adaptive and operational research. The council has initiated the development of national atlas by mapping tsetse and animal trypanosomiasis distribution in collaboration with stakeholders at the national, regional, and international levels.
