One Health
Driving civil society engagement in One Health governance to connect human, animal, and environmental health in infectious disease policy and action.
The One Health Committee is IDA's cross-cutting platform for integrated advocacy across human, animal, and environmental health. We coordinate civil society engagement in Tripartite governance, WHO One Health Joint Plan of Action, and national adaptation planning - ensuring civil society expertise shapes the policies, frameworks, and financing that determine how the world addresses interconnected health threats.
