Schaumburg, Ill.
- The executive summary of the AVMA One Health Initiative Task Force, charged with defining "one health" and providing recommendations and strategic actions to support and expand the concept across the health professions, will be released July 15.
The report, which offers conclusions and 12 recommendations that form the outline for the initiative, was approved in June by the executive board of the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA).
The board approved $50,000 in funding, along with staff and logistic support, to establish a One Health Joint Steering Committee, which will facilitate the transition from the work of the AVMA task force to a National One Health Commission.
The commission would be chartered as an independent, nonprofit organization that would be financially independent of the AVMA.
