Course Overview.
One Health approach appreciates that human health, animal health and the ecosystem health are fundamentally linked up. Worldwide exponential growth in human and livestock populations, changing migration patterns, and environmental degradation have transformed the environment in which human–animal populations coexist. One of the challenges that faces humanity is the spread of infectious diseases that emerge (or re-emerge) from the interfaces between animals-humans and the ecosystems in which they live. The burden of zoonotic diseases has increased globally over the last few decades, raising concern among governments. Zoonoses are transmitted through interactions between animals, humans and their shared environments. Factors contributing to the increasing burden of these diseases include but not limited to human and animal population expansion, wildlife habitat degradation, international travel and trade, changing farming systems, urbanization, cultural practice poverty and climate change
This training program will help delegates and respectively countries to improve their ability to effectively prevent, detect, respond and recover from disease events and prepare for future threats to public health systems at human-animal-environment interfaces.
