Abstract
This report provides an overview of WCS's One Health approach, which seeks to identify where and how global health risks are emerging, while supporting actions that reduce the overall risk to the health of humans, wildlife, animals, plants, and their environments. Beyond WCS's core field-based conservation efforts that support the conservation of biodiversity and intact landscapes and seascapes, and in collaboration with our International Policy, Intact Forests, and other programs/experts, WCS leverages its unique veterinary, health and conservation capacity to deliver on five core One Health approaches. These are to track and improve wildlife health, monitor and reduce the risk of emerging zoonosis, mitigate livestock disease transmission, build veterinary capacity, and catalyze global change.
