About Event

A One Health Approach to Emerging Diseases

A conference for human and animal health professionals, public health professionals, environmental health specialists, agriculture professionals, wildlife professionals, and federal, military, state and local emergency management and disaster responders.

The One Medicine Symposium is hosted by the North Carolina Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (NCDA&CS) and the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (NC DHHS) in cooperation with North Carolina State University College of Veterinary Medicine (NCSU-CVM), the University of North Carolina Gillings School of Global Public Health, United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS) – Veterinary Services, and the North Carolina State University Office of Professional Development (NCSU OPD). This conference provides professionals from a variety of backgrounds with current information and take-home tools to improve awareness and understanding of the topics from a One Health/One Medicine perspective, promote collaboration across professional disciplines, and enhance preparedness for natural or man-made disasters, infectious disease outbreaks, and other challenges affecting human and animal health.

Program Description:

The 2016 One Medicine Symposium featured a broad range of topics related to emerging diseases and other health challenges in humans, animals, and the environment focusing on providing up to date information on recent and ongoing disease issues and critical partnerships for preparedness and response activities.

Participants had the opportunity to attend talks related to their own discipline as well as outside their area of expertise to encourage knowledge sharing and collaboration across disciplines and provide new perspectives which are not frequently or routinely provided at traditional continuing education opportunities.

Attendees were encouraged to discuss how they might approach emerging disease-related challenges in their own professions and communities and build relationships and networks across disciplines that will continue after the conference.

Conference Objectives:

  • Describe the One Medicine/One Health concept.
  • List three reasons to use a One Medicine/One Health approach to prepare and respond to emerging diseases and other health issues.
  • Provide two examples of how two agencies or sectors involved in preparedness/response activities for emerging diseases have worked together.
