One Health and Global Health Law: Launch of the Special Issue of the Journal of Global Health Law
The Groningen Centre for Health Law is delighted invite you to the launch of the Special Issue of the Journal of Global Health Law, taking place on 9 December in the House of Connections.
As the first journal solely decidated to global health law, it offers a forum for exploring the contours of the field. This session is dedicated to the celebration of the launch of next special issue, focused on the role of One Health in Global Health Law.
The area of One Health is emerging as an area of public health studies that aims to sustainably balance and optimize the health of people, animals and ecosystems. One Health is one of the principles for the new WHO Pandemic Treaty and is vital to addressing a range of emerging public health challenges such as anti-microbial resistance and zoonotic diseases. It spans areas of public health, animal health, agriculture and environmental protection.
