One Health
- Submission status
- Open
- Submission deadline
Across the world, increasingly complex health and environmental challenges have arisen due to globalization, climate change, and other factors. The One Health framework aims to address these challenges using an integrated, transdisciplinary approach that recognizes the interdependence of human and ecological health. One Health seeks to simultaneously improve the well-being of humans, domestic and wild animals, and the environment, with areas of focus including vector-borne and other infectious diseases, food and water safety, and antimicrobial resistance, among many others. To address these challenges, coordination is required between health and governance systems that vary in structure and resilience across geographies and across community, regional, and global levels. The One Health guiding principle can help facilitate cooperation between stakeholders across these different systems; however, challenges remain in putting this holistic principle into practice.
This Collection welcomes original research on all aspects of One Health, with the aim of showcasing a broad range of perspectives that explore potential solutions and future directions in this area.
This Collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 3.
