The importance of microbiome in one health

The one health aproach

The “One Health approach” is based on the recognition that the health of humans, animals, plants and the environment are closely linked and interdependent. Because microbiomes operate across biological and ecological boundaries, they are inherently aligned with the One Health approach.

The power of the microbiome

Over the past decades, advances in microbiome science have revealed microbiomes as invisible yet powerful networks linking human, animal, plant and environmental health. Through their metabolic activities, products and genetic potential, they shape nutrient cycles, disease resistance, food systems and ecosystem resilience—making them essential to the One Health approach and to addressing global challenges.
