[Relayed from the futurelearn.com website] In our globalised world, new approaches to preventing, treating and controlling diseases are urgently needed. New illnesses seem to spread faster than ever […] between humans and animals. Stressing this interconnectedness, One Health seeks an integrative approach to human and animal health. This course will explore this approach and examine the value of it - as well as explain how One Health strategies work in practice. This free online course, in which our Swiss colleague Jakob Zinsstag takes a part, is an attempt to answer some key questions such as the advantages of a closer cooperation between human and animal health or transdisciplinary processes to set up to solve the issue. The course is available on https://www.futurelearn.com/courses/one-health
