  • Summary

  • Have you wondered what a zoonoses is? What is a One Health One Medicine Approach to diseases? At SGU located on Grenada in the West Indies, the students, faculty, and community members are enthusiastically embracing this concept with a sustainable approach to addressing worldwide zoonotic diseases. Many diseases can transmit from animals to humans affecting global health. I launched the very first One Health One Medicine Clinic in Grenada as a veterinary student. These free clinics for the island combined human health care with animal health care and public health information. SGU will offer a One Health, One Medicine online course in honor of the inaugural One Health Day, which will be celebrated worldwide on November 3. The course will cover a wide range of topics, including global health burden, determinants of health, strategies toward promoting health, and applications toward a sustainable approach for the health of humans, animals, and the environment.
