Notable among  these include the zoonotic diseases Coronavirus, Lassa Fever,  Tuberculosis, and Rabies, etc., and other animal health diseases such as  the Rinderpest in cattle, Swine flu in Pigs, Avian influenza in Poultry  and Parvovirus in Dogs. As an added complication, our environmental  sustainability is increasingly at risk with the realities of climate  changes that include diminishing wildlife and poor conservation,  droughts and flooding causing an increasing threat to food security,  environmental pollution, poor agricultural practices, and incessant  natural disasters. The inter-connectivity of these human, animal and  environmental issues demands an urgent need for a holistic and cohesive  approach to proffered sustainable solutions. One Health which \u201cpromotes  multi-sectoral and trans-disciplinary collaborations to achieving  optimal health outcomes between animals, humans, plants and their shared  environment\u201d has been verified as this sustainable approach. In  Nigeria, the One Health approach is even more pertinent because of our  failing systems in health and development and the seeming segregation of  allied health professions which limits collaboration among  professionals. In addition, the growing movement of One Health \u2013 though  being touted globally is yet to receive the adequate and necessary  attention and momentum in the general Nigerian public. Therefore, there  is a need for widespread information, education and integrated advocacy  on solving health and development issues through the One Health approach  among related sectors and by extension, the general public.<br \/> <strong>One Health and Development Initiative (OHDI)<\/strong><br \/> One Health and Development Initiative (OHDI) is a nonprofit  organization that works to promote news, education, advocacy and  solutions to interrelated issues of animal, human and ecosystem health  through an integrated One Health approach. Our work is rooted in the  belief that public health issues are intertwined across animal, human  and environmental ecosystems thereby requiring a holistic approach to  effective and sustainable solutions. So, in implementing our various  activities through social impact and health programs, media projects,  advocacy, and research, the core values of \u201cOne <a href=\"https:\/\/optdolari.blogspot.com\/2020\/02\/one-health-advocacy-and-mentorship-oham.html\">One Health Advocacy and Mentorship (OHAM) Program 2020 for Students and Young Professionals<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the last decade and more, there has been an increasing upsurge of novel and existing infectious disease outbreaks in humans and animals both globally, nationally and locally in our communities.
