Diseases (NCDs)
Vet2011 - World Veterinary Year
2011 also marks the 250th
anniversary of the concept of comparative biopathology, without
which modern medicine would never have emerged. Vet 2011 encompasses
both the creation of the first veterinary
school and veterinary
profession, which has been working to improve both animal and human
health
for the past 250 years. For additional information and updates,

Animal & Human Health for the Environment And Development (AHEAD)
Facilitating Collaboration to Address Challenges at One
Health Interfaces
AHEAD is a convening, facilitative mechanism, working to allow
different and often competing sectors to come to the same table and
find collaborative ways forward to address challenges at the interface
of wildlife health, livestock health, and human health and livelihoods.
AHEAD convenes stakeholders, helps delineate conceptual frameworks to
underpin planning, management and research, and provides technical
support and resources for projects stakeholders identify as priorities.
AHEAD primarily focuses its efforts on competition over grazing and
water resources, disease mitigation, zoonoses, local and global food
security, and other potential sources of conflict related to land-use
decision
making in the face of resource limitations.

Mapping noncommunicable disease trends around the world
Source: World
Veterinary Association
Every year over 9 million people die from noncommunicable diseases
(NCDs) such as cancer, diabetes, heart disease and stroke, and chronic
lung disease before they reach the age of 60. Ninety per cent of these
premature deaths occur in low- and middle-income countries. A new WHO
report maps the situation country by country, as global leaders prepare
to discuss the issue at the United Nations high-level meeting on NCDs
in New York, 19–20 September 2011:
