Disease control policies showing different levels namely, global policies involving institutions such as the OIE, multinational polices such as the European Union (EU), national polices, and local farmers’ management plans. Arrows show that policies developed at local fish farmer level can be adopted to become part of the national fish health policy. Similarly, national fish health policies can be adopted and included in multinational and global policies by organizations such as the OIE. The converse also applies: policies developed at global level can be disseminated for inclusion at multinational, national, and local fish famer levels.
