To advance #OneHealth, State and Union Territory (UT) governments play a pivotal role; their responsibilities include contextualising national policies, facilitating interdepartmental coordination, and implementing programs at the grassroot level. The first State & UT Engagement Workshop under #NOHM deliberated on implementation challenges, particularly governance fragmentation, data sharing constraints, and capacity needs. These insights reaffirmed the importance of establishing clear, sustainable governance structures at the State/UT level. To address this, the Ofiice of @PrinSciAdvGoI conceptualised a ‘model governance framework for strengthening the One Health approach in States and UTs’. The objective of the document is to provide a flexible governance framework that enables States/UTs to adopt and operationalise an effective One Health coordination mechanism.
