Whether we see it or not, humans are intimately connected to the natural world around us, and our globalized world further connects all humans on Earth. It is because of these connections that nature and humans can impact one another, why our actions and choices can have global consequences, and why the health of ecosystems and the animals within them directly impacts human health. This story explores the work of our WCS Health team and the One World - One Health initiative. Engage students with a global awareness, an understanding of how diseases spread in wild populations and from wildlife to humans, as well as some of the actions we can take at home to make a difference in global health.
