At the One Health Roundtable during #IKMC2024, leaders engaged in a crucial discussion on operationalizing the One Health (OH) approach, which integrates human, animal, and environmental health. Despite significant commitment from governments and organizations, the practical implementation of OH remains a challenge. The Roundtable addressed key obstacles in operationalizing OH to tackle pressing global issues such as epidemics, zoonotic diseases, climate change, antimicrobial resistance (AMR), and food security. Dr Sanjay Sarin, former VP, FIND, and Chair of the OH Roundtable, emphasized the importance of technological innovation, actionable frameworks, adequate funding, government approval, data authenticity, and effective communication across stakeholders. The need for scalable and replicable OH models was underscored, suggesting that these could serve as benchmarks for governments, guiding the integration of OH principles into policy frameworks. We are thankful to our diverse panel of participants for contributing to this crucial conversation. Together, we're setting the stage for a healthier, more sustainable future. #OneHealth #GlobalHealth #SustainabilityInFocus #IKMC2024 #InspiringSpeakers #InnovationLeadership #SpeakerSpotlight #KeyInsights #SpeakerHighlights #InspiringConversations #IKMC2024 #CreativityUnleashed #InnovationUnlocked #StartUpExpo #InnovationForGood #DeepTech #IKPat25 #Innovation #FutureForward #EpicRhapsody #NextSymphony #GenomeValley #Hyderabad #ScienceInnovation #FutureOfHealth #DeepScience #Networking #FocusAreas #PanelDiscussions #IndustryInsights #Opportunities #ProfessionalDevelopment #Workshops #Leadership #CountdownToIKMC24 Sanjay Sarin FIND Shailaja Tetali Indian Institute of Public Health, Hyderabad Rakesh Mishra Tata Institute for Genetics and Society, India Rama Devi Lanka Government of Telangana Anu Acharya Mapmygenome - Know Yourself Poorna Pushkala, ICF-PCC, SHRM-SCP Samunnati IISER Tirupati AgHub - Agri-Innovation Hub of PJTSAU Raghavendra Rao PV India Health Fund FAO Dr. Sushmitha Sundar Research and Innovation Circle of Hyderabad Dr. Kranti Kiran Reddy Ealla Chandrasekhar Padmasola GLOBAL CARBON WARRIORS rupa manoj kumar Capsber Global Agro Private Limited K V S Pavan Choudary Ctrl+z Rachna Dave, Ph.D. MicroGO Praveen K Sappa, PhD Arthro BiotechAbha Tewarysai prasad somayajula
