Pourquoi participer

In alignment with IUCN’s Nature 2030 Programme of Work, the event will highlight pathways for transformative change in One Health, with a focus on innovative partnerships, enabling policies, and financing mechanisms that can replicate and scale proven solutions worldwide.

Description de la séance

This high-level session will set the stage for bold, coordinated action on One Health within conservation actions. It will bring together leaders from governments, UN agencies, financing institutions, and civil society to showcase IUCN’s leadership in developing and scaling the One Health approach within conservation action and policy. This event will underscore the critical importance of the One Health approach and actively inspire members and different stakeholders to embrace and embed it within their vision and operations; identify opportunities for increased collaboration and commitments between international bodies and IUCN to deliver on its One Health commitments in the Draft Programme and Resolutions1 adopted at Congress; and to establish partnerships (and networks) between conservation, human health, and agricultural sectors to ensure that restoration and conservation is delivering human health benefits through One Health approaches.
