One Health

DelVal is a community of students, faculty, and staff who are committed to the environment, justice, and health for all people.


One Health is a multi-disciplinary approach that works locally, regionally, nationally, and globally to attain optimal well-being for people and society, the environment and plants, and animals. Together, the three major components make up the One Health triad, and the well-being of each is inextricably linked to the others in the triad.

The One Health Seminar Series brings speakers to campus to address a variety of One Health-related topic. The lectures are open to the public at no cost. All are welcome!
