#OneHealth is an approach to optimize the health of humans, wildlife and ecosystems by integrating these fields, rather than keeping them separate.
For #CoP16Colombia's Biodiversity and Health Day, CITES S-G @ivonnehiguero joined the discussions exploring these crucial links.
Forests play a key role for human health, e.g., for food security and nutrition, medicinal plants and nature derived drugs, reduction of temperatures in urban areas, improvement of air quality, enhancing social interactions, recreation and relaxation.
