Putting "One Health" into practice in public policy
This event is over!
The Maisons des Sciences de l'Homme of Montpellier(MSH SUD) and Toulouse(MSHS-T), the key challenges BiodivOc, RIVOC and Octaave, the University of Montpellier(Pôle AEB), the University Paul Valéry(UPVM) and the doctoral school "Territoires, Temps, Société et Développement"(ED 60) are pleased to invite you to the next conference in the Regards croisés sur le vivant en société cycle.
Every2nd Tuesday of the month between October 2025 and May 2026.
The Covid-19 pandemic underlined the urgency of jointly considering the links between animal health, human health and environmental health. This led to the adoption in 2021 of an international definition of One Health, to foster synergies between decision-making sectors and scientific disciplines, with a view to making this approach fully operational.
By bringing together research in health ecology, public policy and environmental law, Nathalie CHARBONNEL (INRAe, CBGP, Montpellier), David GOMIS (Montpellier Méditerranée Métropole) and Claire LAJAUNIE (INSERM, LPED, Marseille) will discuss the governance of One Health and its implications for the environment and ecology, through examples of local implementation.
This lecture series brings together specialists in the humanities and social sciences, as well as ecology(sensu lato) and the environment, to discuss major environmental issues and broaden perceptions towards an interdisciplinary approach.
Eight doctoral schools in Occitanie (ED58, ED60 and Gaïa in Montpellier, SEVAB and SDU2E in Toulouse, ED305 and ED544 in Perpignan and ED Risques et société in Nîmes) offer the cycle to their doctoral students as part of their training (registration required via ADUM).
The primary aim is therefore to "acculturate" young researchers in particular (although the seminars will be open to the entire scientific community), and to show how the same object can be studied in very different ways by different sciences. In the longer term, the aim is to encourage up-and-coming researchers to integrate interdisciplinary approaches into their day-to-day work.
The cycle, offered in hybrid format, is broadcast live from the Maison des sciences de l'Homme.
