Abstract
Zoonotic diseases are infectious diseases that can be transmitted from animals to humans, either directly or indirectly via vectors or food. Zoonotic diseases can also be transmitted from humans to animals. Many environmental factors also influence host-pathogen interactions and disease dynamics, emphasizing the need for collaboration when addressing zoonoses and achieving human health, including both animal health and environmental quality. One health is a concept that aims to bring together human, animal, and environmental health. The new concept of "One World, One Health" is based on the recognition that humans, animals and the environment are inseparable, showing that the world is immediately aware of the relationship between ecology, veterinary diseases and public health, and strives to restore and maintain harmony and unity. The One Health Initiative supports disease surveillance systems, information sharing processes with all stakeholders, diagnostic testing and early zoonotic disease and diagnosis networks by promoting effective coordination of key activities. WHO has published the One Health Approach Action Supplementary Document Roadmap to Combat Neglected Tropical Diseases Until 2021-2030, which aims to support countries and organizations in conflict with international organizations. The only way to combat this alarming problem of zoonoses is through a coordinated global effort to implement the International health regulations, global health security agenda and One Health approaches.
