– Comprendre le contexte réglementaire et les normes internationales régissant la surveillance et le contrôle des agents pathogènes de l’olivier ;

– Être capables d’identifier les paramètres pertinents pour la conception d’enquêtes et un suivi efficace, grâce à l’analyse des procédures d’échantillonnage et des diagnostics à partir d’études de cas sur la Xylella fastidiosa et le Verticillium dahliae ;

– Être capables de préparer et de concevoir des enquêtes et des activités de surveillance basées sur les risques ;

– Travailler en réseau avec des professionnels et des acteurs clés dans les pays membres du COI, échanger des expériences et renforcer la coopération pour faire face aux maladies émergentes et ré émergentes de l’olivier.
