“…In this period information generated by surveillance activities in the poultry population and in the human population was shared in the Campylobacter platform and fed into cross-sectorial policy discussions, triggering public health and animal health targeted interventions. The collaborative nature of the analysis of information generated by the animal and human surveillance streams in the Campylobacter platform fits into the concept of ‘One Health surveillance’, as currently described [20, 21]. This One Health approach was compared with the system in place prior to establishment of the Campylobacter platform, the 5-year period from 2004 to 2008.…”

SUMMARYCross-sectorial surveillance and general collaboration between the animal and the public health sectors are increasingly recognized as needed to better manage the impacts of zoonoses. From 2009, the Swiss established aCampylobactermitigation system that includes human and poultry surveillance data-sharing within a multi-sectorial platform, in a ‘One Health’ approach. The objective of this study was to explore the economics of this cross-sectorial approach, including surveillance and triggered interventions. Costs and benefits of the One Health and of the uni-sectorial approach toCampylobactersurveillance were identified using an economic assessment framework developed earlier. Cost information of surveillance activities and interventions was gathered and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) associated with the disease estimated for 2008 and 2013. In the first 5 years of this One Health approach toCampylobactermitigation, surveillance contributed with information mainly used to perform risk assessments, monitor trends and shape research efforts onCampylobacter. There was an increase in costs associated with the mitigation activities following integration, due mainly to the allocation of additional resources to research and implementation of poultry surveillance. The overall burden of campylobacteriosis increased by 3·4–8·8% to 1751–2852 DALYs in 2013. In the timing of the analysis, added value associated with this cross-sectorial approach to surveillance ofCampylobacterin the country was likely generated through non-measurable benefits such as intellectual capital and social capital.

“…Integrated surveillance capacities are needed to meet complex health issues caused by zoonoses, and this concept has been emphasized repeatedly (FAO et al., ; Scotch et al., ; Conraths et al., ; Leslie, ). This form of surveillance can be referred to as One Health surveillance , which is described in the first working definition as ‘the collaborative, ongoing, systematic collection and analysis of data from multiple domains to detect health‐related events and produce information which leads to actions aimed at attaining optimal health for people, animals and the environment’ (Berezowski et al., ).…”

Zoonotic diseases concern human and animal populations and are transmitted between both humans and animals. Nevertheless, surveillance data on zoonoses are collected separately for the most part in different databases for either humans or animals. Bearing in mind the concept of One Health, it is assumed that a global view of these data might help to prevent and control zoonotic diseases. In following this approach, we wanted to determine which zoonotic data are routinely collected in Germany and whether these data could be integrated in a useful way to improve surveillance. Therefore, we conducted an inventory of the existing data collections and gathered information on possible One Health surveillance areas in Germany by approaching experts through a scoping survey, personal interviews and during a workshop. In matching the information between the status quo for existing data collections and the possible use cases for One Health surveillance, this study revealed that data integration is currently hindered by missing data, missing pathogen information or a lack of timeliness, depending on the surveillance purpose. Therefore, integrating the existing data would require substantial efforts and changes to adapt the collection procedures for routine databases. Nevertheless, during this study, we observed a need for different stakeholders from the human and animal health sectors to share information to improve the surveillance of zoonoses. Therefore, our findings suggest that before the data sets from different databases are integrated for joint analyses, the surveillance could be improved by the sharing of information and knowledge through a collaboration of stakeholders from different sectors and institutions.
