All for health, health for all. That’s the theme of this year’s World Health Assembly (WHA)’s annual meeting. It encapsulates the central problem facing all health systems – and, by extension, the ministers who direct them – that every individual should have equal access to the health services they require without financial hardship. Health ministers are agents of change; the more effective they are, the greater the change. Typically, however, health ministers face a raft of challenges, blunting their effectiveness. Health portfolios are often under-resourced in terms of funding and personnel. https://lnkd.in/eAfwWGjH Julie Masiga-Omondi Diana McGhie

OHHLEP published the inventory of One Health tools and resources on CABI   OHHLEP inventory of One Health tools and resources is now published on CABI and accessible for capacity assessment and One Health operationalization to build into national One Health action plans with guidance for countries. This integrated inventory, mapping, and analysis of One Health tools represents an important step in supporting the advancement of One Health. For the first time, a comprehensive inventory of globally available One Health Tools is presented, which is timely given the increased demand from multisectoral partners to have such a resource to support One Health implementation and capacity building. It presents a descriptive analysis of 50 selected One Health tools that were publicly available from 1999 to June 30, 2023, along with key themes toward the sustainable implementation of One Health.
