What is One Health?
Definition of One Health
One Health is the collaborative effort of multiple health science professions, together with their related disciplines and institutions – working locally, nationally, and globally – to attain optimal health for people, domestic animals, wildlife, plants, and our environment.
Rationale
Planetary Environmental health may affect human and animal health through contamination, pollution and changing climate conditions that may lead to emergence of new infectious agents.
Worldwide, nearly 75 percent of all emerging human infectious diseases in the past three decades originated in animals.
The world population is projected to grow from 7 billion in 2011 to 9 billion by 2050.
To provide adequate healthcare, food and water for the growing global population, the health professions, and their related disciplines and institutions, must work together.
Human-animal interactions / bonds can beneficially impact the health of both people and animals.
