One Health and Development Initiative (OHDI)

One Health and Development Initiative (OHDI) is dedicated to promoting and fostering One Health news, education, collaboration, advocacy, research and solutions across human, animal, and environmental health. At OHDI, our mission is rooted in the belief that public health issues are intertwined across the human, animal, and environmental ecosystems thereby requiring a holistic approach to effective and sustainable solutions. Therefore, in implementing our various activities through social impact and health programs, media projects, advocacy, and research, the core values of “One Health” are consistently integrated to achieve sustainable results in health promotion and sustainable development.

In the current Strategic Period (2021 to 2025), we are implementing the OHDI Strategic Plan_(2021 – 2025).
