The University of Yaoundé I, Cameroon, hosted NOODLES talks on the One Health concepts and implementation in the local and global settings…

….for diseases prevention and health promotion. On May 29th 2015, Dr Roberto Esposito was invited by the University of Yaoundé I to give a conference to Master and PhD students focusing on “Why One Health in the Africa Region?” whereas Dr Guy Pouokam presented some of the experiences made in Cameroon. Roberto says: “The students were very reactive and interested to the challenges of African Countries to face globalization; indeed, the implementation of the One Health approach in Africa could be a answer. Following the presentations, discussion arose around the north – south and south – south collaboration.
