First in-person meeting of the One Health High-Level Expert Panel (Term II) advances Quadripartite collaboration

The One Health High-Level Expert Panel (OHHLEP) held its inaugural meeting for the second term on 18-19 September in South Africa, on the margins of the World One Health Congress. The meeting brought together a distinguished group of global experts to address the interconnected challenges of human, animal, plant, and environmental health. 

Over the two-day meeting, the Quadripartite updated panel members on their progress and plans for the rollout of the One Health Joint Plan of Action (OH JPA) and its implementation. OHHLEP discussed their workplan and agreed that efforts in Term II should focus on fully leveraging the augmented panel and building on the achievements of Term I to maintain the political momentum required for advancing One Health implementation.
