More than 70% of (re-) emerging infectious diseases are from animal origin. Preventing epidemics requires bold action at the human-animal-environmental interface, in line with the One Health approach. Further to earlier One Health-focused EPI-WIN webinars, this webinar will feature voices from One Health professionals working on epidemic and pandemic prevention and preparedness. Ahead of One Health Day on 3 November, the discussion will focus on the sharing of experiences, research and examples from professionals from various backgrounds, field of expertise and sectors. It will celebrate and dive in the multiple and multidisciplinary One Health vision for addressing emerging zoonotic diseases.
