Global Animal Health

Global Animal Health involves the prevention, control, and management of diseases that affect animals worldwide. It includes efforts by veterinarians, scientists, and organizations to monitor animal health, diagnose diseases early, and implement strategies like vaccination and biosecurity. Maintaining animal health is essential for food security, preventing zoonotic diseases (those that can transfer from animals to humans), and supporting biodiversity. It also involves addressing challenges like emerging infectious diseases, antimicrobial resistance, and the welfare of both domestic and wild animals, ensuring a balanced, healthy interaction between animals, humans, and the environment globally.
