  • Afrique One

    Our consortium has been assembled to enhance research capacity and build formal operational links and affiliations among African regional institutions specifically in the are of zoonotic diseases, which have been identified as a national priority in each of the consortium countries. This will be achieved by establishing a comprehensive multilateral training and career development initiative that will enable promising early-career African scientists working in the fields of human and animal infectious disease control to establish enduring internationally competitive research groups within African Universities and partner Research Institutes.

  • High Level Technical Meeting

    to Address Health Risks at the Human-Animal-Ecosystems Interfaces

    Date: November 15-17, 2011
    Location: Mexico City, Mexico
    Organizer: Government of the United Mexican States, FAO, OIE, and WHO

    Summary

    The High Level Technical Meeting (HLTM) was held in Mexico City in November 2011. HLTM built upon the outcomes of the International Ministerial Conference on Avian and Pandemic Influenza (Hanoi 2010) and other related international meetings. The focus of the HLTM was to initiate a process in which health risks at human-animal-ecosystem interfaces are addressed within different geographic regions and to prepare for the next Joint Ministerial Meeting, planned for 2012 or 2013. The meeting highlighted three topic areas (rabies, animal influenza, and antimicrobial resistance) as a basis for discussion about what the Tripartite and individual countries are and could be doing to build political will and more actively engage Ministers in the One Health movement.

  • Expert Meeting on One Health Governance and Global Network

    Date: October 31-November 1, 2011

    Location: Atlanta, GA

    Organizer: CDC and European External Action Service (EEAS)

    Summary
    This meeting, with funding from the United States Department of State, brought together the One Health Global Network work group that was established during the Stone Mountain Meeting of 2010. The objective of the meeting was to develop a proposal for a global network that can link all existing and future One Health databases and materials, as well as to develop a vision for the governance of the One Health movement that will ensure the coherence of the movement. A network task force was created and tasked with moving the idea of a “network of networks” forward over the subsequent six months. In addition, the concept of a One Health Guidance Group was developed.
