GBIF and Health
Learn more about the connections that GBIF reveals between biodiversity and human health
One Health is a term describing a collaborative and transdisciplinary approach that recognizes the intimate connections between the health and well-being of humans, animals and ecosystems and works to link science, medicine and policy from local to global scales.
While other organizations are responsible for handling disease-related data, GBIF play its role in supporting One Health by ensuring the availability of global-scale data and improving understanding of wild species connected to risks of human disease and threats to public health.
