One Health Day Art Challenge

Calling all artists...

One Health is a concept that recognizes that the health of people, animals, plants and the environment are closely connected and depend on each other. The One Health approach brings together all kinds of experts to address some of the biggest threats to our health like epidemics, antimicrobial resistance and climate change.

November 3rd is One Health Day, internationally recognized as part of an effort to raise awareness of this important approach for addressing global health challenges.

The CPTA STEM Committee is inviting students to create an artistic expression of ‘One Health’ to help bring awareness to this important concept!
