One Health in a Changing Climate - Scientific Conference

01 Environmental Health, Exposure Assessment and Biomonitoring 

Chemical, physical and biological exposures linking environmental quality with human health. Topics include environmental toxicology, the exposome, air quality and indoor environments, water and soil pollution, environmental epidemiology, exposure assessment and human biomonitoring. Contributions may address emerging contaminants, environmental and biological indicators, mixture effects, health-risk assessment and the prevention of environmentally related diseases, including vector-borne diseases.

02 Climate Change, Medicine and Public Health 

The health consequences of heat, extreme weather events and changing environmental conditions. Topics include occupational health, vulnerable populations and preventive approaches across different stages of life.

03 Ecosystems, Biodiversity, Agriculture, Food and Animal Health 

The interconnections between healthy ecosystems, human and animal health, and safe, sustainable food systems. Topics include biodiversity, environmental microbiology, zoonoses, antimicrobial resistance, animal welfare, sustainable agriculture, food quality and safety, aquatic ecosystems, forestry, land use and ecosystem services.

04 Healthy Cities, Buildings, Infrastructure and Mobility 

Engineering and planning solutions that protect health in the face of environmental and climate challenges. Topics include healthy indoor environments, urban overheating, noise and air pollution, blue-green infrastructure, resilient buildings, water infrastructure, landscape planning, transport emissions and active mobility.

05 Clean Energy, Circular Economy and Environmentally Safe Technologies 

The environmental and health implications of energy systems, industrial processes, products and resource use. Topics include low-emission technologies, renewable energy, sustainable materials, waste management, wastewater treatment, resource recovery, pollution prevention, life-cycle assessment and chemical safety. Particular attention is given to benefits and trade-offs: low emissions and circularity do not automatically guarantee safety for human health and ecosystems.

06 Digital One Health: Data, Artificial Intelligence and Monitoring 

Digital methods connecting environmental, climate, ecosystem and health data. Topics include sensors, remote sensing, geographic information systems, data integration, artificial intelligence, modelling and decision-support tools. Contributions may address early-warning systems, exposure forecasting, digital health, smart infrastructure and the responsible use of technology.

07 Behaviour, Mental Health, Physical Activity and Social Inclusion 

Behavioural and social mechanisms linking environmental change with health and well-being. Topics include climate-related psychological distress, risk perception, health literacy, physical activity in natural and urban environments, healthy ageing, social inequalities, participation and the needs of vulnerable groups.

08 Culture, Arts, Humanities and Environmental Health Communication 

Cultural and creative perspectives on the relationship between people, nature, health and environmental change. Topics include well-being, heritage and community resilience, health and climate narratives, science communication, and arts-based and creative practice research.

09 Policy, Law, Economics and Governance in One Health 

Translating environmental and health evidence into decision-making. Topics include public policy, environmental and health law, health impact assessment, climate adaptation governance, environmental justice, health economics, sustainable business, public administration and organisational change.
