Abstract
The One Health (OH) approach, integrating aspects of human, animal, and environmental health, still lacks robustly quantified insights into its complex relationships. To fill this knowledge gap, we devised a comprehensive assessment scheme for OH to assess its progress, synergies, trade-offs, and priority targets. From 2000 to 2020, we find evidence for global progress toward OH, albeit uneven, with its average score rising from 61.6 to 65.5, driven primarily by better human health although environmental health lags. Despite synergies prevalent within and between the three health dimensions, over half of the world’s countries, mainly low-income ones, still incur substantial trade-offs impeding OH’s advancement, especially between animal and environmental health. Our in-depth analysis of synergy and trade-off networks reveals that maternal, newborn, and child health are critical synergistic targets, whereas biodiversity and land resources dominate trade-offs. We provide key information for the synergetic and uniform development of global OH and policymaking.
