Project Outputs and Outcomes
HASTE is a two-year project, running until June 2026, which is driving impactful change in how emergency animal diseases in Australia are managed by developing, testing, and delivering:
- Consultation with government and industry partners to identify key gaps and needs for integrated decision-support
- Real-time modelling and analytics tailored to biosecurity outbreak scenarios
- Decision-making workflows aligned with jurisdictional response systems
- Interactive data visualisations for situational awareness and risk communication
- Capacity-building activities, including training and simulation workshops, to embed tools into operational use across government and industry
By ensuring the adoption of cutting-edge modelling outputs into decision-making, the project enhances the precision and effectiveness of responses. This initiative serves as a model for institutional collaboration, creating a strong foundation for a national framework that supports seamless, coordinated decision-making in the face of animal disease outbreaks. The outcomes of this work are setting new standards for how institutions can work together to safeguard public health, animal welfare and biosecurity at a national scale.
