Ian Beveridge Memorial Lecture - One Health in Action: Collaborative Approaches to Emerging Threats in Australia
Join Dr Sarah Britton as she explores how the One Health approach is being implemented in Australia through real-world case studies, showcasing collaboration among the human, animal and environmental health sectors. Drawing on firsthand experience with outbreaks such as avian influenza, Japanese encephalitis and Hendra virus, it outlines how partnerships are formed and maintained to address emerging health threats. The role of the interim Australian Centre for Disease Control (iCDC) and its One Health Unit is discussed, emphasising their vision, priorities and evidence-based leadership in promoting health security and resilience. The session aims to inspire cross-sector cooperation for a healthier, more resilient future.
