Panel Discussion (PD 04) - Africa

The intersection of climate change and health has received increased public attention in recent years. However, the impact of climate change on infectious diseases is not always part of the discussion.

The changing climate is expanding the range of disease-carrying animals, such as mosquitoes and bats, partly due to climate-prompted migration. This increases the number of animal-to-human spill-over opportunities and viral-sharing between animals, heightening the risk of a new human virus, or Disease X, emerging.

Human health, planetary health, animal health and plant health are interdependent. We cannot advance pandemic resilience without considering how others are approaching the shared ecosystem.

As countries around the world learn from their experience in COVID-19 to build their resilience against an unknown future pandemic, it is imperative to incorporate climate change and One Health in the consideration and engineer systemic changes.

This panel discussion seeks to examine the relationship between pandemics, climate change and One Health, identify existing gaps and potential areas of intervention, and foster collaboration among diverse stakeholders.

Registration via: https://web.cvent.com/event/bf673d11-b119-4728-81a2-e3cae0f31a9a 

This event will bring together members of public health authorities, international organizations, health leaders, representatives from parliament, and civil society. Together, they will present current evidence, share best practices, and explore key policy measures to enhance the optimized use of antibiotics.

  • What are the implications of the recent United Nations declaration on antimicrobial resistance for strategic approaches to combating AMR globally?
  • How do accurate and timely diagnostics contribute to the effective management of AMR, and what are the main barriers to the widespread adoption of diagnostic tools?
  • How are diagnostics currently integrated into National Action Plans on AMR?
  • What specific roles can different stakeholders (government, private sector, NGOs) play in advancing the use of point-of-care diagnostics in AMR?

 

Feel free to contact me if you any questions.
