🧠🌍 Health Is No Longer Just a “Human” Matter
Health is no longer only about people.
Science says it. The United Nations confirms it. And everyday reality proves it.
👉 People, animals, and the environment are part of one interconnected system 🌍💉🐾
This approach has a clear name: One Health.
🔬 What Is One Health? (According to WHO)
The World Health Organization (WHO) defines One Health as:
“An integrated, unifying approach that aims to sustainably balance and optimize the health of people, animals, and ecosystems.
It recognizes that the health of humans, domestic and wild animals, plants, and the wider environment are closely linked and interdependent.”
WHO further states:
“By linking people, animals, and the environment, One Health can help address the full spectrum of disease control—from prevention to detection, preparedness, response, and management—and contribute to global health security.”

🌐 Global Governance of One Health
At the global level, a dedicated international body is already active:
The One Health Advisory Group for Quadripartite Organizations
This working group brings together:
• FAO – Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
• UNEP – United Nations Environment Programme
• WHO – World Health Organization
• WOAH – World Organisation for Animal Health
👉 This body coordinates strategies and guidelines to implement the One Health approach worldwide 🌎💡
From emerging disease prevention to food safety and ecosystem protection.
🚀 One Health Is Not a Buzzword
One Health is not an empty slogan.
It represents a real paradigm shift 🌱✨
It means addressing:
-
pandemics
-
zoonotic diseases
-
environmental crises
-
food security
-
access to healthcare in fragile territories
👉 Not through fragmented, sector-based solutions,
but through integrated and innovative approaches.
🏝️🤖 A Concrete and Operational Project
Inspired by the One Health principle, I’m currently working on the development of an innovative operational project based precisely on this approach.
📍 The project is designed for small islands and remote European areas 🏝️🛰️
For confidentiality reasons, I can only share the following at this stage:
-
the project is in a pre-operational phase
-
it integrates advanced technologies
-
it leverages artificial intelligence
-
it proposes new emergency response models 🚁🤖💡
-
it simultaneously addresses the needs of humans, animals, and the environment
🧩 From Theory to Practice
The emergency protocol I am developing together with multiple Italian and international partners is already showing something very clear:
👉 One Health works. Today.
It is not abstract theory.
It is practical, real, and applicable—
especially in contexts where traditional healthcare systems reveal their limits.
🌱 Generation Z and Alpha: Tomorrow’s Decision-Makers
Generation Z and Alpha 🌱💡🌍 are not a distant future.
They are already aware, informed, and engaged.
They understand:
-
the value of integrated health
-
the deep link between people, animals, and the environment
-
the need for new political and healthcare choices
👉 They will guide the decisions of tomorrow.
For this reason, the reorganization of the Italian National Health System must move in this direction.
Now.
Without waiting for Gen Z and Alpha to formally enter decision-making rooms.
