Innovative and multidisciplinary experience establishing the One Health Research Institute in Honduras
One Health is an integrated, unifying approach that aims to sustainably balance and optimize the health of people, animals and ecosystems. Observing the organizational format of the Group on Earth Observations (GEO) Health Community of Practice, the One Health Research Institute was created by Universidad Tecnológica Centroamericana in April 2024. This letter presents the first year of experience of a center that could represent a model research institution in the Americas region.
