A One Health Framework for Integrated Service Delivery in Turkana County, Kenya
One Health approaches that integrate human and animal health service delivery can help to improve pastoralists’ health through increased vaccine coverage and improved access to services. Kenya has institutionalized One Health at the national level; however, progress at the subnational level has been limited due to sustainability concerns, competing priorities, and insufficient coordination platforms. To address this gap, this paper presents a One Health framework to aid in the implementation of integrated human and animal health policies in Turkana County.
