PANELLISTS' KEY MESSAGES
  • Equity and evidence are central.
  • One Health approaches must address local meanings and priorities around humans, animals and ecosystems.
  • It’s important that we understand and act effectively on complex, dynamic drivers of disease which requires deliberation amongst multiple knowledges and perspectives.
  • One Health is an increasingly securitised space where powerful national interests, politics and profit play a significant role in determining global disease control priorities.
