Simabo takes it message to the WHO.

Ravi Silva and Silvia Punzo took part yesterday in the meeting (organized by ADECO, the association for the defense of consumers) between representatives of the company 'civil and the representative of WHO, World Health Organization.

Since 'the pilot project carried out by SIMABO in S. Vicente apply to the WHO recommendations regarding stray dogs we asked Dr. Salazar to support our work not only for the City of Mindelo, but also on the other islands because sterilization will spread as a method to control the dog population and replace the answer by the municipal's of CV, which involves the unacceptable practices of poisoning or starvation of the dogs in the kennels.

After stating that the stray dogs is not 'one of the priorities' of WHO in Cape Verde, Dr. Salazar has promised to respond to our request and finally to analyze the material that we sent, containing WHO recommendations in this area. Thanks to Edward Gandini for having made this material available that allows us to build on a solid foundation of our requests.
