 “Caribbean Resilience and Prosperity through One Health” (Freely accessible e-book) http://onehealthcaribbean.org/images/pdf/CaribbeanResilienceandProsperityThroughOneHealth.pdf “The book demonstrates how a One Health approach can help overcome major challenges to health and prosperity in the Caribbean. Many of these problems, like climate change, food security, ocean health, and emerging diseases arise from the interactions of people, animals and our shared environment. This book draws on the ACP-EU [African, Caribbean, and Pacific – European Union] funded UWI [University of the West Indies] project, One Health, One Caribbean, One Love, as well as other individuals and institutions in the region. It showcases Caribbean experience and people who are able to develop One Health solutions to some of the most pressing Caribbean problems.” Permission to post provided to the One Health Initiative website December 14, 2017 by: Chris Oura, BVetMed, MSc, PhD, MRCVS Professor in Veterinary Virology, School of Veterinary Medicine, Faculty of Medical Sciences, University of the West Indies, Eric Williams Medical Sciences Complex, Uriah Butler Highway, Champ Fleurs, Trinidad, West Indies.
