The One health Concept
As defined by One Health Commission, "One Health is an approach that recognizes that the health of people is closely connected to the health of animals and our shared environment",

As well, in 2015 the Rockefeller Foundation and The Lancet defines Planetary health  referring to "the health of human civilization and the state of the natural systems on which it depends"

One Health, as well as the Planetary Health concept, are rooted in the profound interdependence of human and natural systems: there is a significant overlap between planetary health and traditional environmental health; both examine the relationship between human health and conditions and exposures originating outside the body, be they extreme temperatures, chemicals and biological agents, vector-borne diseases, or any other potential factors.

Cities find themselves at the interface of many scales of engagement, activity, policy making and intervention when it comes to dealing with the causes, treatment, and recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic


Student session and competition​
Students are invited to submit their contribution and proposal for the conference.
A dedicated space will be dedicated to students and the selected contributions can partipate
to the student competition.

For each domain a selected student contribution will participate to the main session an would run for the scientific publication.
Call for abstract
"We can only prevent future pandemics with an integrated One Health approach to public health, animal health and the environment we share."
The REsilienceLAB lauches a Call for Abstracts for the UROH conference.
The call for abstract is open to collect contributions proposal engaged in the Conference debate and dialogue.

The Conference will explore the different interdependencies and urban vision domains, articulating the dialogues in three main thematic sessions:

Domain 1: interdependence of human and natural systems: exploring research, knowledge and experiences exploring existing interdependence and strategic alliances based on scientific knowledge and good practices. This session includes possible advancements in environmental analysis, monitoring and protection in assuming the concept of OneHealth (particularly concerning data, the OneHealth approach helps to think and design ways to explore the cross-influence between health and environment).
Researches domains and sub-tracks focuses on :

- Air Quality in post-pandemic urbanisms
- COVID-19 and zoonotic disease: vulnerabilities and crises,
- Water and Ecotoxicology, Soil pollution and remediation
- Nature-based solution and health ecosystem services, 
- Eco Anxiety and Ecopsychology in the urban environment.

Domain 2: Urban ecosystem and One health: exploring the contribution to Human Health and urban resilience from the green infrastructures and renovated approach to urban green approached as core multifunctional infrastructure for our common future. a specific focus will be oriented to the preparedness of urban system for shocks and stress
Researches domains and sub-tracks focuses on :  

- Adaptation and mitigation to climate change at a local level: a health per Planetary Health and One Health
- Community Resilience and participatory science to face triple crises
- Resilience and Preparednes
- Early Warning Systems and Connectity
- Health Ecosystem Services

Domain 3: One health and urban resilience hybridization: exploring the possible integration among two core approaches. The aim is to highlight the synergies' perspectives from a conceptual (or theoretical) level, governance domain (policies and tools for plan and urban design), to operational and practical level (intervention, practices acted).
Researches domains and sub-tracks focus:

- Urban heat waves
- Energy transition: net zero-emission building and cities for an indoor quality of life
- Indoor Air Quality
- Biomimicry and Bio-architecture
