ONE HEALTH
Welcome to the One Health website of the Belgian Biodiversity Platform. The One Health community brings together experts from a diversity of fields, including human, animal and plant health scientists, natural and social scientists, policy makers, practitioners and other stakeholders.
Worldwide, One Health is gaining momentum through increased attention, recognition, conceptualizations and challenges in the realms of science, policy and society. The aim of the Belgian One Health community is to support collaboration, capacity building and communication among Belgian actors.
