Description
THE ONE HEALTH approach offers a comprehensive framework to address the interwoven health challenges arising from the interactions between humans, animals, plants and the environment. By promoting interdisciplinary and intersectoral collaboration, it aims to combat diseases, curtail antimicrobial resistance, and support agricultural and ecosystem sustainability. The success of One Health relies on robust political commitment, adequate funding and coordinated efforts among stakeholders. Moreover, education and public awareness are essential to facilitate cross-sectoral cooperation and tackle regional and economic disparities. This One Health Atlas is a detailed resource that explores the principles, practical applications and future pathways of the One Health concept. Following an introduction that highlights the ways that human, animal and environmental health are interdependent and which stresses the urgency of operationalizing One Health, the atlas is organized into four key sections: Foundation and recent history; Zoonoses, agriculture and food security; Education, networks and governance: One Health in action; and Future directions and emerging challenges. It concludes with a call to integrate science, policy and society to institutionalize One Health, emphasizing stakeholder engagement, local knowledge and collaborative efforts to tackle global health challenges effectively. It gives readers a holistic perspective on navigating and addressing the complexities of global health through the One Health framework. This atlas, combining concise text and rich illustrations, is authored by over 150 experts from diverse continents and disciplines. It examines the intricate interconnections between human, animal, plant and environmental health. Serving as a valuable resource for educators, policymakers, researchers, students and the informed public, it combines scientific rigor with accessibility to tackle critical issues such as zoonotic diseases and food security. By embedding One Health principles into global strategies, this atlas equips readers with the knowledge and tools necessary to develop innovative solutions for a healthier, more sustainable future.

He is a veterinarian and an epidemiologist with more than 30 years of experience across Africa, Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Indian Ocean, focusing on the epidemiology of animal and zoonotic diseases. His work has emphasized the development of interdisciplinary One Health networks, particularly for emerging and endemic diseases in Southeast Asia. He engages with governments and international organisations to bridge science, policy, and practice.
Marie-Marie Olive (Edited By)
Marie-Marie Olive is an epidemiologist at CIRAD, whose work focuses on integrated One Health surveillance and the early detection of emerging zoonoses. She coordinates multi country activities that strengthen early warning, training and response across African countries, where she helps develop approaches to enhance detection and response capacities. Her background includes research on vector-borne diseases including doctoral research on Rift Valley fever transmission in Madagascar, and she leads transdisciplinary collaborations with national partners to translate evidence into operational surveillance.
Marisa Peyre (Edited By)
Marisa Peyre is an epidemiologist and health economist specializing in the evaluation of surveillance and control programs in animal health and One Health. She is the Deputy Director of the ASTRE research unit and has co-founded PREZODE, the global initiative to prevent zoonotic disease emergence. Trained in biotechnology engineering, immunology, epidemiology and health evaluation, she has worked at CIRAD since 2006 and regularly engages in policy relevant dialogues on One Health governance and operationalisation. She has also worked on the evaluation of animal health surveillance and control in developed and developing countries, especially on emerging zoonotic risks such as animal Influenza, Ebola and MersCov and on the strengthening of public-private partnership.
