The Passion behind
One Health Lessons

Meeting the global need. One classroom at a time.

Ambassadors

The following individuals are elite One Health advocates who have dedicated at least 9 hours of training, focused on One Health communication and teaching. They commit their free-time to teaching new audiences in traditional and non-traditional classrooms about One Health in their communities. In addition, they instruct other local One Health advocates, using their first language, which then create more local Certified Lesson Leaders and, eventually, Ambassadors in their communities. This is important because these efforts not only improve the communication skills of local One Health advocates but also expand community awareness, appreciation, and encouragement of local One Health efforts.
