Call for Applications to Serve on the One Health Commission Board of Directors

 

The One Health Commission (OHC) is pleased to announce an open call for board members to join our governing body. As we implement our new constitution and bylaws, we are seeking distinguished experts who embody collaborative, multi- and trans-disciplinary approaches for addressing shared health challenges across human, animal, environmental, and plant health domains.

The One Health Commission seeks Board members who can span multiple health domains in their work and thinking. Ideally, we seek candidates with experience bridging core domains of One Health who also have experience engaging community voices in their One Health work.

At a minimum, we require representation across the following four essential One Health domains, with at least one dedicated expert from each:

 

Human Domain: Medical professionals, public health experts, epidemiologists, and related specialties

Other Animal Domain: Veterinarians, wildlife (terrestrial and aquatic) health professionals, animal sciences and population health experts

Environmental Domain: Ecosystem specialists, climate scientists, and environmental health professionals

Plant Domain: Agricultural and horticultural specialists, botanists, foresters, and plant health professionals
