Current Programs: One Health and One Planet Vision
One Health is a collaborative, multisectoral, and transdisciplinary approach, working at local to global levels, for the purpose of achieving optimal health outcomes in the context of the interconnectedness between people, wildlife, plants, and their shared environment. While recognizing the multitude of linkages and concepts under the One Health umbrella, T’ECH DP from time to time chooses to highlight and work on a number of themes, with a bias towards the human health and planetary health.
Similarly, we tend to take an integrative or interdisciplinary approach, which is typically rooted in culture, backed by science, and guided by sustainable principles.
Food & Culture
This program represents a cluster of themes, led by the Food Festivals and programs, including nutrition, food as medicine, and SDGs in the food system, among others.
Tech & Health
We explore innovative ways for intervention thru technologies; our current themes of focus are: Digital tech, positivity, EMF and traditional medicines, among others.
City & Ecology
Planetary health and human health are intricately linked. Now some 56% of world’s population lives in cities. A starting point to look at the health risks is the cities.
