The Enugu State Government says it will continue to strengthen the "One Health Approach" to deal with existing and emerging animal health, human health, and environmental health challenges confronting the state.

Gov. Peter Mbah of Enugu State gave the assurance on Monday in Enugu at a two-day training on Disease Monitoring and Investigation Using the One Health Risk Communication Approach and the National Action Plan on Health Security (NAPHS) Implementation.

The training, which is being organised by the Livestock Productivity and Resilience Support Project (L-PRES) Coordination Center, Enugu State, was meant for One Health Officers in Enugu State.

Represented by the State Commissioner for Agriculture and Agro-Industrialisation, Mr. Patrick Nwabueze Ubru, the governor said that the training marked an important step in the ongoing efforts of the government to strengthen animal, human, and environmental health services.

According to him, the training will also improve disease surveillance and enhance multisectoral collaboration through the "One Health Approach".
