On #TsunamiDay, we remember the lessons of the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami: know the warning signs & #GetToHighGround. It's essential to pass these lessons to the next generation of children & youth. Coastal communities must prioritize teaching tsunami risks in schools. 🌊

The #OneHealth approach is for everyone!

No matter who you are, where you live, you have a role in it!

[WHO/Europe @WHO_Europe]

#OneHealth applies to a range of issues including:

#AntimicrobialResistance
#ZoonoticDiseases
#VectorborneDiseases
#FoodSafety
#ClimateChange
#Pollution
#Biodiversity

🌿💧Wetlands are our protectors and providers. These ecosystems shield us from extreme weather while nourishing us with food resources, from fisheries to agriculture.

Happy #OneHealthDay!

Investing in #OneHealth is essential to address interconnected health challenges across humans, animals & ecosystems.

@FAO is working closely with #OneHealth partners to address complex health threats at the 👥-🐔-🌿interface.

A healthy planet equals the well-being of humanity, animals, plants, and ecosystems.

On today’s #OneHealth Day, see how UNEP & partners are working to protect the health of all and contribute to sustainable development. https://t.co/icPXjGF3p5

[UNDRR @UNDRR]

🌍 We have reached a stepping stone of integrating #DRR into the economic framework and development discourse. 🌱

The G20's first Ministerial Declaration on DRR emphasizes the need to protect those most at-risk by tackling inequalities and reducing vulnerabilities. 🤝

FOUR PAWS urges member states to prioritise spillover prevention measures within the #PandemicAgreement. Identifying and tackling the drivers of outbreaks at the human-animal-environment interface is key to safeguarding health worldwide. 🌍 #INB12 #OneHealth

[JT Zee @ZeeFp]

Agricultural intensification, deforestation, land use change, & wildlife trade fuel disease risks. While several countries consider One Health important & take action, efforts must be scaled up through the instrument ensuring support & means for implementation for prevention.

[JT Zee @ZeeFp]

A #OneHealth approach that enables collaboration & coordination across relevant sectors and involves communities, is the only way to effectively tackle pandemics. Sectors where diseases emerge must co-develop and implement prevention strategies to curb animal-human spillovers.

[JT Zee @ZeeFp]

An estimated 1.7mil “undiscovered” viruses exist in mammals & birds, of which up to 827,000 could potentially infect humans (IPBES, 2020). The Pandemic Treaty must prioritise prevention of spillover-an important global health pillar not addressed in other legal instruments yet.

[JT Zee @ZeeFp]

With 75% of emerging infectious diseases in humans —like COVID-19, Ebola, Mpox, bird flu, HIV or Marburg virus —originating in animals, it’s vital to address the drivers of spillover at the human-animal-environment interface. #OneHealth

[JT Zee @ZeeFp]

🧵 #INB12 Pandemic Treaty negotiations start today! WHO Member States are negotiating an international #PandemicAgreement focused on preventing, preparing for, and responding to pandemics, building more resilient health systems, and promoting equity. #

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

With only 2 days of negotiations left at #COP16Colombia, we need to accelerate towards:

🔵A new era for ambitious national biodiversity plans.
🔵Concrete plans to unlock new funding.
🔵Protecting and including those who guard our natural heritage.

The survival of our planet’s biodiversity is on the line.
