Development and evaluation of surveillance systems and metrics to track One Health outcomes and guide public policy.

Presentation of successful One Health stories and solutions in the field of infectious diseases, vector-borne diseases, foodborne diseases…

As efforts to protect human, animal, and environmental health intensify, « One Health » has become a ubiquitous mantra. Yet its implementation through data integration remains fraught with real-world challenges. This keynote moves beyond the buzzword to explore the tension between the promise of unified data and the messy reality of fragmented systems. We will navigate the core injunctions of modern data science–to digitize everything, to be genuinely transdisciplinary, to integrate across scales, and to share data–arguing that the path forward is not a single, monolithic system, but a just and interoperable ecosystem. Drawing from concrete examples like global SARS-CoV-2 animal data and transdisciplinary prioritization of climate-sensitive diseases, the talk highlights lessons learned from managing, curating, and analyzing cross-sectoral datasets.

Contributions from the social sciences to identify and address barriers to the adoption and scaling of One Health approaches.
