Abstract

The global acceptance of the One Health (OH) approach has surged over the past two decades, leading to a proliferation of OH-related activities. A consequence of this growth is the increase in discipline-specific terminologies emerging in the OH lexicon to become lingua franca. However, some of these terms are used ambiguously, and interpreted broadly, thereby hampering systematic OH coordination. This article elucidates the semantics of eight fundamental terminologies, including 'One Health', 'One Health Systems', 'One Health Framework', 'One Health Core Competency', 'One Health Education/Curriculum', 'One Health Professional/Workforce', 'One Health Study/Research', and 'One Health Governance/Legislation'. The major findings of this study are that while there is a consensus on OH definition and OH framework usage, OH systems remain ambiguous despite frequent mentions. Core competencies and educational models are disparate, thus requiring harmonization, and a putative global OH governance structure is being defined through international organizations.

一种卫生术语汇编。

在过去二十年中，全球对“同一个健康”方法的接受度激增，导致与“同一个健康”相关的活动激增。这种增长的结果是，特定学科术语的增加出现在OH词典中，成为通用语言。然而，其中一些术语使用含糊，解释广泛，从而阻碍了系统的羟基配位。本文阐述了八个基本术语的语义，包括“一个健康”、“一个健康系统”、“一个健康框架”、“一个健康核心能力”、“一个健康教育/课程”、“一个健康专业人员/劳动力”、“一个健康研究/研究”和“一个健康治理/立法”。本研究的主要发现是，虽然对OH的定义和OH框架的使用有共识，但尽管经常被提及，OH系统仍然是模糊的。核心能力和教育模式是不同的，因此需要协调一致，并且正在通过国际组织确定假定的全球OH治理结构。

期刊介绍： EcoHealth aims to advance research, practice, and knowledge integration at the interface of ecology and health by publishing high quality research and review articles that address and profile new ideas, developments, and programs. The journal’s scope encompasses research that integrates concepts and theory from many fields of scholarship (including ecological, social and health sciences, and the humanities) and draws upon multiple types of knowledge, including those of relevance to practice and policy. Papers address integrated ecology and health challenges arising in public health, human and veterinary medicine, conservation and ecosystem management, rural and urban development and planning, and other fields that address the social-ecological context of health. The journal is a central platform for fulfilling the mission of the EcoHealth Alliance to strive for sustainable health of people, domestic animals, wildlife, and ecosystems by promoting discovery, understanding, and transdisciplinarity. The journal invites substantial contributions in the following areas: One Health and Conservation Medicine o Integrated research on health of humans, wildlife, livestock and ecosystems o Research and policy in ecology, public health, and agricultural sustainability o Emerging infectious diseases affecting people, wildlife, domestic animals, and plants o Research and practice linking human and animal health and/or social-ecological systems o Anthropogenic environmental change and drivers of disease emergence in humans, wildlife, livestock and ecosystems o Health of humans and animals in relation to terrestrial, freshwater, and marine ecosystems Ecosystem Approaches to Health o Systems thinking and social-ecological systems in relation to health o Transdiiplinary approaches to health, ecosystems and society.
