North American Plan for Animal and Pandemic Influenza
  • The North American Plan for Animal and Pandemic Influenza (NAPAPI) was a framework developed after the H1N1 pandemic in 2009 that was the first public health emergency that raised international concern.
  • It was developed in collaboration with the health, agriculture, security, and foreign affairs industries to protect against, control, and respond to animal and pandemic influenza in North America.
  • The NAPAPI replaced the original 2007 North American Plan for Avian and Pandemic Influenza and incorporated lessons learned from the H1N1 Pandemic in 2009.

  • The NAPAPI was announced in April 2012 by Prime Minister Stephen Harper, President Barack Obama, and President Felipe Calderón of Mexico.
