One health rapid assessment co-creation

The One Health Rapid Assessment (OHRA) was developed to address interconnected health challenges across humans, animals, plants, and the environment. This report details the creation and testing of the OHRA tool, which supports practitioners and investors by providing a flexible, user-friendly platform for assessing One Health outcomes of initiatives. Developed based on findings from a literature review and peer-reviewed testing, OHRA effectively reveals connections between health domains, aiding in monitoring, strategic planning, and project design. Furthermore it supports the user in adopting a broader perspective on health and facilitates the adoption of One Health principles. Key findings of the tool testing emphasize the need for clear indicators and user-friendly interfaces. Recommendations include enhanced visualizations, additional tutorials, and broader dissemination. OHRA is a significant step towards mainstreaming One Health principles and fostering cross-sectoral collaboration.
