Why One Health?
The health and wellbeing of people, animals, plants, and ecosystems are deeply interconnected. Achieving lasting impact requires holistic, collaborative, and evidence-based approaches. Guided by this understanding, OHDI drives education, advocacy, research, and practical solutions that bridge disciplines to build healthier, more resilient, and sustainable communities.

Testimonials
Stories from the people and partners who inspire our work.
“OHDI's AFIWEL Program has been transformative, reshaping my capacity to lead, research, and influence policy in ethical and sustainable aquaculture. Before AFIWEL, my work focused on research and metrics in fish production. Now, I am able to translate research to Zambia's policy outcomes and One Health impact.
My Fellowship at OHDI has been incredibly enriching, allowing me to work in a truly interdisciplinary and international environment, engaging with diverse projects and professionals. Now, I have a clearer sense of how One Health can be translated into real-world impact, and how to shape my career moving forward.
“The OHA Program was a transformative experience that strengthened my public speaking, teamwork, project management and organizational skills, adding valuable transferable skills to my professional journey. I left the program wiser, more confident, and better prepared for future opportunities in the One Health space.”
"The poultry farmers’ training and WhatsApp community have been really great help to me. It connects the gap between farmers and vets while helping us learn from each other. Through this platform, I also became aware of AMR and how to improve my practices. I’m grateful to OHDI for this impactful initiative."
"The program greatly supported my journey as an AMR champion. Before, I had little knowledge about AMR. Now, with OHDI's support, I have established 3 active AMR and WASH clubs in Adamawa State. I am grateful to OHDI for giving me the opportunity to grow, learn, and become a strong voice in the fight against AMR"
