Navigating the Interconnected Web of Health: A Comprehensive Review of the One Health Paradigm and Its Implications...

Disease outbreaks pose serious threats to humans, as highlighted by the recent pandemic, underscoring the need for an institutionalized multi-sectoral approach like One Health, encompassing human, animal, and environmental health. One Health has demonstrated efficacy in addressing emerging issues such as antimicrobial resistance and zoonotic disease spillover. While integrating the human-animal sector has yielded positive outcomes, the majority of zoonotic spillovers originate from wildlife, emphasizing the crucial role of environmental surveillance within global One Health systems. Additionally, climate change intensifies the frequency and emergence of infectious diseases and spillover events. Tackling the complexity and interconnectedness of health challenges necessitates integrated solutions that incorporate broader structural factors, aiding in the prevention, detection, and mitigation of disease outbreaks. Embracing One Health through multi-sectoral preparedness can effectively confront the escalating threats of pandemics and other emerging diseases.
