  • Changes in ecosystems and contact with wildlife and other animals are driving risks
  • A One Health approach is essential to help identify and reduce sources of risk to prevent disease more proactively; conservation authorities have a key role to play
  • The Guidelines for Prevention, Detection, Response, and Recovery from Disease Risks provide practical guidance for governments and site managers.
