Funding and financing for One Health initiatives at country level remain challenging as investments commonly require demonstrated evidence of economic value or returns. The objectives this review were to i) identify, critically analyse summarise quantitative the net initiatives; ii) document methodologies used in scientific literature; iii) describe common challenges any gaps. Scientific databases searched published literature following PRISMA guidelines an online survey workshop with subject matter experts identify relevant grey literature. Studies included if they reported on costs benefits (monetary non-monetary) measured across least two sectors. Relevant publications analysed plotted against six action tracks Quadripartite Joint Plan Action help classify initiatives. Ninety-seven studies included.

Abstract The current perception that climate change is the principal threat to biodiversity at best premature. Although highly relevant, it detracts focus and effort from primary threats: habitat destruction overexploitation. We collated causes of vertebrate extinctions since 1900, information for amphibia, birds, mammals IUCN Red List, scrutinized others’ attempts compare with commensurate anthropogenic threats. In each analysis, none arguments founded on change's wide‐ranging effects are as urgent those loss Present conservation efforts must refocus these issues. Conserving ecosystems by focusing major threats not only protects but available, economically viable, global strategy reverse change.

Out of all emerging infectious diseases, approximately 75% are zoonotic origin, with their source often traced back to animals. The emergence zoonoses is driven by a complex interplay between anthropogenic, genetic, ecological, socioeconomic, and climatic factors. This intricate web influences poses significant challenges for the prediction prevention outbreaks. Effective coordination collaboration among animal, human, environmental health sectors essential proactively addressing major diseases. Despite advancements in surveillance diagnostic practices, continues be pressing global concern. Therefore, prioritizing disease paramount importance as part comprehensive containment strategy. Furthermore, evaluating existing systems provides insights into faced, which can mitigated through implementation 'One Health' principles involving relevant stakeholders. To initiate multisectoral partnerships, it crucial identify priorities core themes equitable inputs from various sectors.
