Leveraging Human, Animal, and Environmental Health Partners to Keep Michigan Healthy Series #2 (On Demand-No CE)

No CE. A certificate of completion is free.

PHP is pleased to partner with the Michigan Center for Rural Health to offer a second One Health ECHO series.

This series explored One Health through a cross-sectoral lens with consideration to equity. The series brought together participants from a variety of disciplines (infectious disease physicians, veterinarians, public health staff), analyzed cases, analyzed cases, and allowed for collaboration in a large group learning environment. This second session focused on how One Health and health equity are affected by climate change, including how climate change adversely and unequally affects vulnerable communities.

This training was originally held on August 27, 2024.
