DESCRIPTION/SUMMARY OF THE EVENT OBJECTIVES
1. To engage the Experts in conversations with their Stakeholders and Clients on the need for and how to achieve Teamwork for Better Healthcare Delivery and the achievement of the SDGs with special reference to health-related issues.
2. To promote the concept of “One Health” which recognizes that the health of humans, animals and ecosystems are interconnected. It involves applying a coordinated, collaborative, multidisciplinary, and cross-sectoral approach to address potential or existing risks that originate at the animal-human-ecosystems interface. Regardless of which of the many definitions of One Health is used, the common theme is collaboration across sectors. Collaborating across sectors that have a direct or indirect impact on health involves thinking and working across silos and optimizing resources and efforts while respecting the autonomy of the various sectors.
