What is One Health EJP?

The One Health European Joint Programme (One Health EJP, https://onehealthejp.eu/) is an international collaboration between public health, animal health and food safety institutes across Europe. Launched in January 2018, the One Health EJP is a landmark partnership between 44 partners from 22 countries across Europe. Its main focus is to strengthen collaboration and improve preparedness by means of dedicated joint integrative and research projects, and through education and training in the fields of foodborne zoonoses, antimicrobial resistance and emerging threats. The One Health EJP has strong science-to-policy activities with stakeholders including national ministries, European stakeholders (EFSA, ECDC, EEA, EMA) and global stakeholders (FAO, OIE, WHO/Europe), helping to gain both immediate and long-term impact.

What should I know regarding COVID-19-related restrictions if I plan to attend on-site?

The recent developments of the pandemic in Denmark are positive, and Denmark is therefore in the process of phasing out the related restrictions. This means that we feel optimistic about a hybrid conference with both physical and virtual attendees.

We continue to monitor the developments of the pandemic and the related restrictions/regulations. We will do from our side our best to ensure a safe conference experience for all. For example, there is a test facility at the venue, where anyone who wishes can take a rapid test and get the result within 15 minutes.
