Quadripartite One Health Collaboration in Europe & Central Asia

One Health is an integrated and unifying approach that aims to sustainably balance and optimize the health of people, animals and ecosystems. Recognizing that human, animal, plant and environmental health are closely interconnected, the One Health approach promotes multisectoral collaboration to prevent, detect and respond to health threats at the human–animal–environment interface.

This webinar, organized by the Regional One Health Coordination Mechanism for Europe and Central Asia (ROHCM), which brings together FAO, UNEP, WHO/Europe and WOAH, will highlight how these organizations collaborate to address complex and emerging health challenges. The event will showcase the role of the ROHCM in supporting countries to operationalize the One Health approach through coordinated governance, harmonized technical assistance and joint investments, aligned with the One Health Joint Plan of Action (2022–2026).

The webinar will begin with an introduction to the ROHCM, followed by presentations on key collaborative initiatives led by the Quadripartite organizations. These include the Pandemic Fund, the AMR Multi-Partner Trust Fund (MPTF), and the National Bridging Workshops (NBW), outlining their background, the role of the Quadripartite, participating countries and next steps. The webinar will also highlight practical country examples to illustrate the added value of One Health collaboration in practice.
