ONLINE SIDE EVENT

The Alliance against Health Risks in Wildlife Trade: Advancing One Health 

Wildlife trade—legal, illegal, domestic or international—is a global driver of health risk at the human–animal–environment interface.

The International Alliance against Health Risks in Wildlife Trade is a global, interdisciplinary network, uniting over 180 organisations and more than 500 experts. Together, we are dedicated to understanding and preventing the spillover of pathogens at source, bridging science, policy, and practice through a One Health approach. Our initiatives range from knowledge exchange and pilot projects to policy advice and awareness-raising on health risks along wildlife trade chains. 

In this side event, we will shed light on current evidence of health risks inherent in wildlife trade while highlighting the Alliance’s work in advancing this issue within the global One Health agenda. A group of experts and practitioners will be brought together to unpack how these health risks emerge and can be addressed across scales

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn, engage in discussion, and be inspired by ongoing efforts to prevent zoonotic health risks in wildlife trade, an issue at the heart of pandemic prevention and global health policy. 

Here is our preliminary agenda.

This side event is organised by the new Secretariat of the Alliance against Health Risks in Wildlife Trade, hosted by the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH).
