Overview

WHO has taken a pivotal role in advocating for and advancing the One Health agenda. Many departments and regional offices of WHO have been working extensively on One Health topics for decades. The One Health Initiative (OHI) was established in 2021 to facilitate coordination and ensure a unified One Health position. With its broad expertise and global reach, WHO is committed to delivering tangible impacts at country level. Its role involves supporting Member States in developing and implementing national strategies and action plans, strengthening capacity and competence, promoting training and awareness, fostering partnerships, and monitoring and evaluating progress and the impact of One Health and also promoting global, regional and national coordination.
