Narrative review reveals climate change intensifies health risks across human, animal, and environmental domains, highlighting the need for integrated One Health governance.
Key Points
Identify and operationalize key governance mechanisms, surveillance strategies, and cross-sector collaborative approaches to support health-adaptive policies.
Conducted a comprehensive literature search across Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, WHO, WHO AFRO, ECDC, FAO, and EUPHA databases for records published between March 2020 and June 2025.
Applied a narrative synthesis method to integrate findings across diverse study designs and global contexts.
Climate change intensifies vector-borne disease transmission, heat-related illness, food insecurity, and biodiversity loss, causing disproportionate impacts in low- and middle-income countries.
Implementation of One Health strategies, including community-based surveillance and climate-resilient food and livestock systems, improves early warning and outbreak preparedness capacity.
