      Operationalizing “One Health”: a Policy Perspective—Taking Stock and Shaping an Implementation Roadmap (2010 : Stone Mountain, GA)
    • Description:
      cdc:22020

      In 2008, following up on policy initiatives that took place during the International Ministerial Conference on Avian and Pandemic Influenza held in New Delhi in December 2007, the three major international organizations charged with animal health and human health – the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE), and the World Health Organization (WHO) – collaborated with the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), the United Nations System for Influenza Coordinator, and the World Bank, to develop a joint strategic framework in response to the evolving risk of emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases. The document communicating this framework, Contributing to One World, One Health* - A Strategic Framework for Reducing Risks of Infectious Diseases at the Animal–Human–Ecosystems Interface, set out six specific inter-linked objectives for countries to consider in their approach to infectious disease control at the animal-human-ecosystem interface.

      In March 2009, the Public Health Agency of Canada, hosted an expert consultation titled “One World, One Health: from ideas to action” in Winnipeg, Manitoba. The purpose of the consultation was to discuss the Strategic Framework and to identify and shape country-level recommended actions to globally advance the framework. Participants recommended the development of supra-country approaches that use multidisciplinary/trans-disciplinary methods in addition to trans-boundary/regional approaches to integrate efforts. In her closing remarks, Danielle Grondin of the Public Health Agency of Canada, noted that because the political economic agenda is the priority of world leaders today, “One Health” principles need to be translated into language that is relevant to finance ministers.

      All parties involved recognized the important information that came out of the Winnipeg meeting, and to move the concept of One Health forward, a follow up meeting was necessary to define specific action steps. Therefore, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), in collaboration with OIE, FAO and WHO, hosted subsequent expert consultations titled Operationalizing “One Health”: A Policy Perspective – Taking Stock and Shaping an Implementation Roadmap in May, 2010 in Stone Mountain, Georgia, USA. This meeting brought together a select group of leaders, including specialists from national Ministries of Health and Agriculture, the European Commission, the United Nations, the World Bank, and other diverse institutions from the academic, policy and economic sectors, to contribute their expertise and experience to the discussion. The 54 participants reviewed progress to date in terms of leading practices related to “One Health” and identified key policy decisions and financial commitments necessary to support sustainability and expansion.
