The concept refers to a cross-cutting and integrated approach that considers human, animal and environmental health as interconnected. The health of people is indeed linked to the health of animals and the environment in which we live and a multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary approach is essential to address the health challenges that affect the entire ecosystem. Projects and initiatives are promoted to prevent, detect and respond effectively to infectious diseases (including zoonoses), improve public health and promote environmental sustainability and animal welfare. CISAO projects aim to operate through various strategies including disease surveillance, monitoring and control, research and development of new approaches and support for training and the implementation of health policies. This multidisciplinary and integrated approach allows for optimal planning and design to address complex health challenges that involve human, animal and environmental health.
