As part of the One Health Summit (Lyon, April 7), Loire Val-Health is organizing a major international scientific and educational event: a live broadcast dedicated to infectious diseases and the One Health approach, with a particular focus on antimicrobial resistance.
This event aligns with the program’s ambition to transform health research, building on one of its three excellence key areas: infectious diseases and One Health, mental health and biopharmaceuticals. It is also part of the broader context of the One Health Summit in Lyon, which will bring together heads of state and government, as well as representatives of international and regional organizations, to strengthen global cooperation in response to health, food, and environmental risks.
Hosted in English by two Master’s students and a journalist, the program aims to make current research in the field of One Health accessible to a broad audience, through an international and interdisciplinary perspective.
The central theme will address a major global public health issue: bacterial resistance to antibiotics. Speakers will discuss its causes, its impact on human, animal, and environmental health, and the One Health solutions currently being explored to limit its spread.
Its scheduling alongside the One Health Summit provides an ideal opportunity to highlight this initiative and showcase the broader dynamics supported by Loire Val-Health.
With a network of 180 alumni worldwide, the event is expected to reach a wide international audience and contribute to a better understanding and adoption of the One Health concept.
The One Health approach aims to sustainably balance and optimize the interconnected health of humans, animals, plants, and ecosystems. Its goal is to improve global health by strengthening prevention systems for health, food, and environmental risks, while fostering a shared culture and international dialogue around these global challenges.
