And Announcing
The 2025 One Health Day
STUDENT EVENTS Competition Winning Team
(see below)
2026 is the 11th year that One Health Day has provided an opportunity for organizations, groups and individuals around the world to hold hundreds of events raising awareness about One Health* and the complex challenges it addresses at the interface of animals, environment, humans and plants. This special day gives One Health advocates and practitioners around the world a powerful voice for moving beyond provincial approaches to emerging zoonotic infectious diseases, antimicrobial resistance, climate change, environmental pollution, food safety, comparative research and translational medicine and many other arenas needing to be addressed using One Health thinking, acting and decision making for the benefit of All.
Just as no one person, profession or discipline owns One Health, No One Organization 'owns' One Health Day. It belongs to the international One Health movement and community. It was spearheaded in 2016 and continues to be hosted by the One Health Commission in promotional partnership with the One Health Initiative Autonomous pro bono Team and the Global One Health Community.
Event Descriptions and Maps provide impressive examples of how the world is embracing and advocating for One Health with over 1200 events registered around the globe in 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025. And we know there have been many more such events at local, national and regional levels that did not get registered and added to the maps.
Anyone, from academic, government or corporate organizations to private individuals and groups, can plan, implement and Register one or more One Health Day events each year. Events do 'not' have to fall right on 3 November but can occur any time of the year. Online registration to get a pin on the global One Health Day 2026 is free and free use of the One Health Day fliers and logos in many languages is encouraged. Let us know (ohc@onehealthcommission.org) if you would like to help prepare a One Health Day Logo in 'your' preferred language.
Remember!! to Register your event(s) to get on the map!!!
And, once again, in 2026 there will be one Student Event Competition cash award of $1,000.
