One Health

A One Health Approach for UFV


One Health is an applied, transdisciplinary approach to the study of the interaction between the human systems and their containing ecosystem, most usually through the study of linked issues of human, animal, and ecosystem health. This approach has developed over the last few decades in response to complex issues such as zoonotic disease and agricultural impact on ecosystem health and other issues that are poorly served by disciplinary study. One Health has successfully been used by universities to organize activities designed to create applied research solutions to emergent problems and could prove to be a powerful tool for the University of the Fraser Valley due to our dedication to applied research and teaching, regional grounding, strength in agriculture, environment, and health, and dedication to Indigenization.
