Domingo (Jim) Caro III

I’m an award-winning risk communication specialist and storyteller based in Bangkok, with over 15 years of experience in development communications, particularly in animal health and transboundary disease challenges in Southeast Asia. Currently, I lead project communications and regional strategies at the FAO’s Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific, focusing on campaigns like African swine fever and other transboundary animal diseases, including antimicrobial resistance.

With a PhD in animal health communication and advanced degrees from Murdoch University, the University of Newcastle, and the University of the Philippines Los Baños, I excel in social media, risk communication and stakeholder engagement. Known for my personable and driven approach, I thrive on collaboration and am committed to creating meaningful impact through effective communication. I’m also proud to have received several awards for my work as a creative problem-solver and team player.
