One Health & Climate

COVID-19 has delivered a stark lesson about the global interconnectedness of the health of humans, animals and our planet, known as the One Health concept. In the times of a drastically warming climate, the decisions that are taken during the next 18 months will fundamentally define the health of all future living beings. 

During the three months we have been sensing into the system to understand what actions would be needed to connect the diverse voices in Switzerland to collaborate under the One Health umbrella. What can be done to drive forward a holistic approach towards a healthier future?


The working group “One Health & Climate” is contributing to the prototype of the working group “Sustainable Cities and Neighborhoods”. On 16th November, a dialogue on the topic of One Health will take place in the frame of the Bern2020 dialogue series. Find out more here!
