“… This includes taking steps to protect and monitor the health of livestock and the people who care for them through a “One Health approach” — meaning one that fosters collaboration between countries, disciplines, and sectors to prevent disease outbreaks among humans and animals and protect their shared environments. …”

From climate change to antimicrobial resistance, many of the threats to health and well-being facing Europe are linked to unsustainable patterns of production and consumption. The One Health approach recognises that these threats can only be addressed through multisectoral and transdisciplinary collaboration across the domains of human, animal, plant and ecosystem health. The European Environment Agency (EEA) works together with other EU agencies and institutions to support the implementation of the One Health approach in Europe.

Advancing Health Care in Humans, Animals and the Environment

Prof. Michael Osterholm:

 “If there’s ever a good time to talk about that concept of one health, animals and humans together, this is it. You know, the real potential for human-related disease, and particularly a pandemic potential is all tied with these animals.”

“… We have an interdisciplinary focus on pandemic management

At the Center for Pandemics and One-Health Research (P1H), our research is aiming to shed light on how we can best prepare for the next pandemic. …”

“… A vital head start

Most illnesses not seen before in humans are zoonoses-;diseases found in animals that infect humans. Many diseases in animals are also treated with antibiotics and other antimicrobials that are used for humans. However, the widespread use of antimicrobials in humans and animals has led to resistance, as microbes evolve to survive. So we face two major, overlapping public health threats: one from new infectious diseases that are zoonoses, and one from rising antimicrobial resistance. Tackling these threats requires a collaborative One Health approach-;championed by the World Health Organization (WHO)-;which recognizes that human health is dependent on the health of our ecosystem. …”

The problem is that they are in short supply, and up to 70% of infectious diseases originate in animals
