Public Health Sciences Course Program (PHS)

One Health

One Health is an approach that aims to find integrated and sustainable solutions on complex problems affecting the health of people, animals and ecosystems, and generating an added value for each sector. In this course, the concepts of One Health will be learned, including theory and exercises applied to concrete examples (e.g. zoonoses, antimicrobial resistance, non-communicable diseases).

Ziele

At the end of this course, participants shall be able to:

  • Remember and understand the background, history and concepts of One Health
  • Remember and understand socio-ecological and environmental determinants relevant for One Health systems and policy
  • Understand the terms interdisciplinarity and transdisciplinarity
  • Assess the added value generated by a One Health approach on concrete examples
  • Apply system thinking and One Health on complex problems
  • Apply the evaluation of One Health-ness on projects and programmes

Inhalte

The course will cover the theory of One Health indicators (such as interdisciplinarity and transdisciplinarity, collaboration, added value, participatory processes of stakeholders, gender and equity, and sustainability), system thinking for complex problems, and evaluation of One Health. It will be taught in a way that the learned theory can directly be linked to real world health challenges and their solutions. These challenges are manifold and include zoonoses and non-communicable diseases, emerging infectious diseases, antimicrobial resistance, food security and safety, wildlife-domestic animal-human conflicts, or climate change and environmental resilience. A problem will be selected by participant groups and a system map will be generated.
