World Health Organization
We are the United Nations’ health agency. We are committed to achieve better health for everyone, everywhere.
One Health Day
The health of humans, animals and ecosystems are closely interlinked. Changes in these relationships can increase the risk of new human and animal diseases developing and spreading.
One Health is an approach to optimize the health of humans, animals and ecosystems by integrating these fields, rather than keeping them separate.
Human activities and stressed ecosystems have created new opportunities for diseases to emerge and spread.

1 周La tuberculose reste un tueur majeur, malgré les outils disponibles pour la prévenir, la détecter et la traiter. Le sous-financement persistant, en particulier dans les pays à faible revenu, freine les progrès. La résistance aux médicaments, en particulier la TB multirésistante, constitue une menace majeure. Pour renverser cette tendance, un engagement global renforcé est essentiel, avec un financement accru pour la recherche et des actions multisectorielles pour combattre les déterminants sociaux de la maladie. Il est impératif d'agir maintenant pour réduire ce fardeau mondial.
