ABSTRACT
One Health recognizes the close links and interdependence among human health, animal health and environmental health. With the pandemic of COVID-19 and the risk of many emerging or reemerging infectious diseases of zoonotic nature as well as the spreading antimicrobial resistance, One Health has become one of top concerns globally, as it entails the essential global public health challenges from antimicrobial resistance over zoonoses, to climate change, food security and societal well-being. Research priorities in One Health include the study on interactions of human-animal-plants-nature ecology interface, systems thinking, integrated surveillance and response systems, and the overall One Health governance as part of the global health and sustainability governance. The now launched journal, Science in One Health, aims to be a resource platform that disseminates scientific evidence, knowledge, and tools on the One Health approaches and respective possible socio-ecological interventions. Thus, aims at providing fruitful exchanges of information and experience among researchers, and decision makers as well as public health actors.
