We invite you to join KAISA: the One Health Awareness Campaign: a national student competition for video- and infographic-making contest followed by mentoring sessions with experts in One Health!

About the Campaign
The One Health approach is key in better understanding and addressing the public health concerns of today such as antimicrobial resistance, emerging and reemerging diseases, food safety and security, and environmental pollution, affirming the need for multisectoral and transdisciplinary collaboration. Despite its importance and the general shift towards institutionalizing One Health, awareness of the approach among the next generation of One Health professionals is yet to become widespread.
KAISA: The One Health Awareness Campaign aims to encourage awareness, appreciation, utilization, and critical thinking on One Health and its applications among university students in the Philippines. The campaign will be composed of a national student competition and mentoring sessions on One Health and will also be held in commemoration of World Rabies Day 2022.
This event was organized with the UP Medical Students for Social Responsibility, and made possible through partnership with Chevron and the support of the Southeast Asia One Health University Network and the United States Agency for International Development.
