The Department of Animal Husbandry and Dairying (DAHD) organized a panel discussion on the topic “One Health Concept to Practicality”, that brought together the key stakeholders from the ‘One Health’ ecosystem in the country. DAHD’s initiative to implement an effective One Health framework by establishing One Health Support Unit (OHSU) will strengthen systemic capacity to better manage animal health and reduce disease incidence at a national level.
