One Health (including food-borne pathogens)
One Health is an integrated approach that recognizes the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health to effectively prevent and manage global health challenges.
STAR IDAZ Approach
One Health recognises the interconnections between the health of humans, animals, plants and the environment, and the value of collaborative and interdisciplinary approaches to addressing complex health challenges. As an international consortium focused on animal health research coordination, STAR IDAZ promotes consideration of One Health approaches where these can strengthen research and disease control.
STAR IDAZ has undertaken dedicated work on the funding and coordination of research using a One Health approach, producing a series of reports exploring the global funding landscape, barriers to effective funding and practical opportunities to improve research coordination.

One Health Commission - One Health Tools and Toolkits
These documents aid in health systems management, disease surveillance, research, learning, and much more. To help streamline awareness of and access to them, the One Health Commission has gathered tools and toolkits from across the web and presented them.
Working group
One Health Working Group
The STAR IDAZ One Health Working Group was established to explore how research funders could better support and integrate One Health approaches. Working with experts from across animal, human, plant and environmental health and the social sciences, the group examined the global One Health research funding landscape and identified opportunities to improve coordination and funding mechanisms.
The dedicated One Health Working Group is no longer active, having completed its programme of work. Its findings and recommendations remain available through the STAR IDAZ One Health reports and continue to inform the consortium's wider approach to research coordination.

Gap analysis summary
STAR IDAZ’s One Health work has focused particularly on improving the funding and coordination of research that uses integrated One Health approaches. The programme examined the global funding landscape, barriers to effective funding and opportunities to improve coordination between researchers, funders and other stakeholders. It highlighted challenges including fragmented governance and funding, short funding timeframes, limited flexibility and sustainability, and barriers to equitable participation. Recommendations include greater coordination between funders, longer-term and more flexible funding, co-creation of research, improved communication and greater consideration of sustainable financing mechanisms.
