Five Regional Commissions have been formed to promote cooperations, study specific problems encountered by Veterinary Services and organize cooperation activities on a regional level. Elections were held in May 2006 for the Bureau of the Regional Commissions (President, Vice-President and Secretary General) for a three-year term:

Africa
Américas
Asia, Far East and Oceania
Europe
Middle East

Each Commission organizes a conference, usually once every two years, in one of the countries of the region. These conferences are devoted to technical items and to regional cooperation for the control of animal diseases.

Regional Commissions report on their activities and submit recommendations to the World Assembly of Delegates
