Prezode – an international initiative to prevent zoonosis emergence

Advancing Health Care in Humans, Animals and the Environment

As we face unprecedented existential threats, including humanitarian crises currently affecting over 800 million people, cultivating an active care for a world at risk is an absolute priority, starting with a United Nations-University Community Global Forum to reconsider our future directions and options

“… Assumptions underpinning these directions,  reflected in the evolving international One Health for One Planet Education initiative (1 HOPE), include recognising the ‘folly of a limitless world’ and shifting our worldview from human-centrism (it’s all about us) to eco-centrism (it’s about all species and the planet!). …”

Plastic pollution has become so endemic that it affects everything from the environment to animals, plants and humans, calling for a One Health response

Scientists to Explain One Health Approach to Confronting Emerging Challenges – ATSConferenceNews.org

“Researchers increasingly observe links between diseases and the environment, leading to a holistic approach to health that encompasses the interplay of all living beings and the world around them, known as One Health.

Helena Chapman, MD, MPH, PhD [Member, One Health Initiative Autonomous pro bono Team]

“Using the One Health concept, clinicians and researchers can contribute their unique perspective on how human, animal, and environmental health are directly interrelated, lead transdisciplinary collaborations to advance scientific knowledge, and ultimately develop timely interventions to safeguard population health,” said Helena Chapman, MD, MPH, PhD, associate program manager for health and air quality applications in the Applied Sciences Program of the NASA Earth Science Division.

On Wednesday, May 24, Dr. Chapman will co-chair the scientific symposium Humans, Animals, the Environment: Why is the One Health Approach Needed for Emerging Health Issues? The session, designed to focus on how living beings interact with the ecosystem that may lead to adverse impacts on human health, will be held from 12–1:30 p.m. ET in Room 150 A-B (Street Level) of the Walter E. Washington Convention Center.  …”

“…  An international roster of speakers will discuss how the One Health approach can promote collaborations across scientific disciplines, encouraging respiratory health professionals to use this approach to help inform decision makers when responding to emerging health challenges. They also will share examples of how clinicians and researchers can participate in research, policy work, and advocacy. Featured presentations include:

• Overview of One Health, Using Innovative Data, Helena Chapman, MD, MPH, PhD, NASA Headquarters
• Environmental Pulmonary Pathology from a One Health Perspective, Jack Harkema, DVM, PhD, DACVP, ATSF, Michigan State University

“… Create One Planet Health Systems – to strengthen security, resilience and sustainable wellbeing at community, country and global levels; building upon and modernising existing operations, services, resources and organisations, to create and enable robust multi-sector systems with enhanced coordination, infrastructure, leadership and workforce capacity. Draw upon and modernise existing professions and initiatives including Environmental Health, Public Health, Planetary Health and One Health to strengthen health systems for humans, animals and the Planet. …”

“… The review, “Human-Animal Interaction in Animal-Assisted Interventions  (AAI)s: Zoonosis Risks, Benefits, and Future Directions—A One Health Approach,” was recently published in the MDPI journal Animals. The discussion points to possible future perspectives according to a One Health approach in light of the health and safety in AAIs.

Positive animal welfare, as preventative medicine to avoid incidents or transmission of pathogens, is a relevant aspect with implications for human and animal health and wellbeing. For this reason, the authors propose a synergy among veterinarians, public health professionals, and epidemiologists, who have a key role in preventing zoonotic disease transmission to safeguard the health of humans, animals, and the environment, in accordance with a One Health vision.  …”
