One Health for a Changing World: Zoonoses, Ecosystems and Human Well-Being

2017

This article series published by Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B focuses on the One Health Initiative, which aims to drive improvements in human, animal, and ecological health. The 11 articles explore the intersections of human, animal, and ecosystem health, since these interactions are poorly understood and little researched. Diseases of animal origin such as Nipah, SARA, swine flu, and Zika have caused great alarm both locally and in relation to their global threats. The articles in this series include review articles researching endemic zoonotic diseases, opinion pieces on contributions towards more effective and equitable approaches to health in low- and middle-income countries, and research articles on zoonotic diseases in Africa.

Series articles include:
