Latest SARE score: 2 (2019)
In-country SARE assessment done: Yes
(2019)

The Stepwise Approach towards Rabies Elimination (SARE) is a practical planning, monitoring and evaluation tool to guide, develop and refine rabies control programmes. It provides measurable steps, designed as a logical flow of activities, to progress from Stage 0 to Stage 5, in efforts towards freedom from dog-transmitted rabies. 

A SARE score of 2 out of 5 signifies a country where a national rabies control strategy has been drafted and is being implemented.
