ABOUT THE NSERC-CREATE OHAP PROGRAM : Food-borne, water-borne, vector-borne, and zoonotic (FWVZ) pathogens are increasingly prevalent in Canada and around the world with the rise of globalization, antimicrobial resistance, and climate change. However, the current sociopolitical climate often hinders the dissemination of difficult facts and the adoption of evidence-based public policies.
We believe that scientists must learn to effectively communicate facts and evidence to both policymakers and the public. To address this, the NSERC-CREATE One Health Against Pathogens (OHAP) program was established to train experts in interdisciplinary research, communication, and public policy. Our program promotes a holistic One health approach, combining traditional research-based experience, professional development, and mentorship from government and industry leaders.
One Health emphasizes the interconnectedness of human, animal, and environmental health and provides sustainable, equitable solutions to maximize public good while minimizing harm. Our goal is to equip Canada with public health strategists, researchers, leaders, and regulators who possess a systems-level understanding of FWVZ pathogens and the skills needed to develop, evaluate, and advocate for comprehensive public health policies.
