"While many continue to argue about college students carrying signs saying 'from the river to the sea' it's strange that they're just ignoring an Israeli prime minister proudly touting a map on which Palestine simply does not exist."

The fourth comic in the ‘Uncertain Worlds’ series from the IDS @PASTRES_erc programme looks at the lessons from recent disease outbreaks & how thinking differently about uncertainties could point to alternative ways to respond to #pandemics. @IanScoones

On the occasion of #WorldZoonosesDay, help the world and yourself by taking 2 mins off and reflecting on how to build a healthier planet. You can find some food for thought on @PoultryHub chicken nuggets blog! https://t.co/VzQWhe7UuY

Have a look at our blog, based on recent research & fieldwork in Nigeria with the University of Ibadan. Nigeria has the highest number of #mpox cases on the continent. Considered endemic. The situation is not the same as the multi-country outbreak. @NCDCgov @SSHAP_action @abs014

[Megan Schmidt-Sane @MSchmidtSane]

Please join us for a webinar on #mpox on 27th April! Together w/ colleagues from the Univ of Ibadan and @IDS_UK, we researched mpox in Nigeria, focusing on human-human spread. Lots of lessons for public health emergency response. @SSHAP_action @abs014

This #OneHealthDay @abs014 considers why effective cross-sector and #interdisciplinary collaboration remain an elusive goal – but one we must continue to aim for.

What are the key contextual factors and social impacts of the crisis in Northern #Ethiopia?

And what are the implications for the #humanitarian response?

A One Health situation in all it's complexity and interconnectedness, and a ripe setting for a zoonotic/pandemic breakout. How can trade expansion be more mindful of health consequences? What other governance mechanisms are needed where regulations can't be enforced?

SSHAP researchers recently contributed to this special issue of Anthropology in Action on #epidemic responses. ❗️

Researchers have long noted the connections between socioeconomic inequalities and infections. There is now growing recognition that epidemics are also social and political events

New special issue of Anthropology in Action explores this. More 👇
