One Planet, One Health provides a multidisciplinary reflection on
the state of our planet, human and animal health, as well as the
critical effects of climate change on the environment and on
people. Climate change is already affecting many poor communities
and traditional aid programs have achieved relatively small gains.
Going beyond the narrow disciplinary lens and an exclusive focus on
human health, a planetary health approach puts the ecosystem at the
centre. The contributors to One Planet, One Health argue that
maintaining and restoring ecosystem resilience should be a core
priority, carried out in partnership with local communities.One
Planet, One Health offers an integrated approach to improving the
health of the planet and its inhabitants. With chapters on ethics,
research and governance, as well as case studies of government and
international aid-agency responses to illustrate successes and
failures, the book aims to help scholars, governments and
non-governmental organisations understand the benefits of focusing
on the interdependence of human and animal health, food, water
security and land care.
