The One Health Region Vorpommern is an open, regionally based network.
This is where people come together who want to make a difference –
for the health of people, animals and the environment.
With ideas, questions and experience – or simply with curiosity.
For us, One Health means taking action instead of waiting.
Connecting people, sharing knowledge, exploring new ideas
and learning together – in Vorpommern.
„One Health ist ein kollektiver, vereinender Ansatz, der darauf abzielt, die Gesundheit von Menschen, Tieren und Ökosystemen nachhaltig ins Gleichgewicht zu bringen und zu optimieren.
It recognizes the health of humans, domestic and wild animals, plants, and the wider environment (including ecosystems) are closely linked and inter-dependent.
The approach mobilizes multiple sectors, disciplines and communities at varying levels of society to work together to foster well-being and tackle threats to health and ecosystems, while addressing the collective need for clean water, energy and air, safe and nutritious food, taking action on climate change, and contributing to sustainable development.
One Health High Level Expert Panel (OHHLEP)
In unserer One-Health-Region geht es darum, ein Bewusstsein für diese Zusammenhänge zu entwickeln. Welche Auswirkungen hat unser tägliches Handeln auf die Gesundheit von Mensch, Tier und Umwelt und was können wir verändern?
The health of people in the region must be considered together with the health of animals and nature as a whole.
A one-health-region is an area in which the interdependence of human, animal and environmental health is taken into account in all economic, political, social and legal decisions. The aim of a one-health-region is the regional promotion of human, animal and environmental health.
How do we achieve the One-Health-Region?
The One-Health-Region Vorpommern recognises the value of every living being in its environment and promotes the health of humans, animals and the environment in Vorpommern. To this end, projects are carried out that strengthen the development of the One-Health-Region Vorpommern by integrating health into all economic, political, social and legal decisions and supporting its practical implementation. A project serves to promote the One Health region if it is evidence-based and transfer-orientated. If possible, the project should establish structures and work towards the perpetuation and prioritisation of health in the One Health sense.
