Taking a Multisectoral, One Health Approach: A Tripartite Guide to Addressing Zoonotic Diseases in Countries

Source: World Health Organization (WHO). Published: 3/2019.
This 166-page guide, co-published with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and World Organisation for Animal Health (OIE), updates and expands the 2008 Guide to cover prevention, preparedness, detection, and response to zoonotic threats at the animal-human-environment interface in all countries and regions, and to include examples of best practices and options based on the experiences of countries. Although focused on zoonotic diseases, this guide is flexible enough to cover other health threats at the human-animal-environment interface (e.g., antimicrobial resistance and food safety).
