One Health is a concept aiming at better understanding and addressing the health issues arising from the intricate relationship between human, animal and environment. It relates to the complex link between animal, human and environment with regards to health and disease. This concept could be defined on three levels that is the individual (human and animal), the population (human and animal) and the ecosystem. Paramount for this concept to work is the need for collaboration among multiple disciplines locally, nationally and globally, in order to attain optimal health. About the Presenter:
