About this Event
This workshop aims to address the calls in One Health research for further inclusion of the social sciences. The workshop is organised by the RESIST-AMR research group but will include a broad scope of topics within One Health beyond AMR. It will explore existing interdisciplinary projects at TCD and abroad, as well as facilitate future work by connecting participants and generating new ideas for collaboration. The workshop and presentations will be particularly relevant for researchers and policymakers, though all are welcome. The preliminary outline for the workshop is as follows:
