No single sector can prevent wildlife disease risks on its own. That is why the #OneHealth approach matters 🐾 In Karakol, Kyrgyzstan, IUCN, Camp Alatoo and partners are bringing together specialists from conservation, veterinary and public health sectors for practical One Health and biosafety training focused on prevention, early warning and safer responses to wildlife disease risks. 🎯The goal is simple: stronger cooperation, faster information-sharing and better preparedness across the human–animal–environment interface #1Health4Nature @iki_germany 🙌

🦠 Healthy ecosystems are part of the first line of defence against emerging health risks. Changes in biodiversity, climate and the way people interact with nature can affect wildlife health and influence the risk of diseases passing between animals and people. 🎯This is where #OneHealth comes in. Through #1Health4Nature #CentralAsia, experts are strengthening wildlife disease surveillance, laboratory diagnostics and regional cooperation — connecting nature conservation more closely with efforts to understand and prevent zoonotic disease risks.
