Abstract
In a world where challenges are growing in both number and complexity, every effort and contribution made by a dedicated team in the shared fight to prevent and control them is truly commendable.
Today, more than ever, we must remain vigilant about the role of diverse pathogens, ranging from prions to large parasitic organisms, in affecting human, animal, and environmental health. Our focus must center on a concept that has repeatedly proven its relevance and necessity, encapsulated in just two words: One Health.
Around 50 to 60 years ago, there was a widespread belief that infectious diseases would soon be a thing of the past, thanks to the discovery of antibiotics and the development of vaccines. However, particularly after 1998, the world was forced to acknowledge that this optimism was premature. Even now, the fight against infectious diseases must continue, with renewed focus and collaboration.
While public health authorities in Europe and across the globe work tirelessly to implement proven strategies and innovate new methods for prevention and treatment, the role of information and data sharing remains absolutely vital.
The medical journal One Health & Risk Management plays an active and essential role in this mission. Through the articles it publishes, its comprehensive approach to the One Health paradigm, and its commitment to fostering interdisciplinary collaboration, the journal continues to support and strengthen our collective efforts, which are essential to building a healthier, more resilient world.
