No results found.The COVID-19 pandemic has underscored the global vulnerability to zoonotic diseases and the urgent need for improved preparedness using OH principles. These principles advocate for the collaboration of sectors involved in the health of people, animals, plants, and their shared environment. The tripartite organizations (FAO, OIE, WHO), recently joined by UNEP, are working together to address zoonotic diseases, antimicrobial resistance (AMR), and biodiversity protection. However, national and regional implementation remains limited, especially in integrating wildlife and environmental health with traditional animal and human health sectors. AMR is a significant threat due to the misuse of antimicrobials in humans, animals, and agriculture. This misuse leads to resistant pathogens, complicating treatment and threatening food security, nutrition, and environmental sustainability. Southern Africa faces high levels of antimicrobial resistance, exacerbated by weak regulatory frameworks and poor agricultural practices.
