About the Institute

The One Health approach influences everything we do. We are motivated by a mutual recognition that the health of humans, animals, plants, and our shared environment are interconnected. We believe that increased cooperation, communication, and collaboration across human, animal, and environmental groups is crucial for overall planetary health. 

We are driven by data in our quest to improve the decision-making process across every aspect of the modern world. This includes the integration of technology, not just because it’s fun but because it has the potential to advance health across sectors. We strategically use technology and data to scale impact for the public good, but not at the expense of the individual. 

We bridge the gap between academia and industry by building relationships, sharing our expertise, and implementing evidence-based practices. We thrive in opportunities where we can pull knowledge from the classroom and bring it to the field.

Finally, we value creativity and innovation in developing solutions to global health challenges, especially those resulting from emergencies and disasters. We firmly believe prevention is better than reaction and that engaging local stakeholders is the key to long-term sustainability.
