01In brief

The short answer.

Health Nexus regional applications address problems in the health and biosecurity field that the countries of a region share, such as One Health, and the cooperation that responds to them. Each application is listed with its status from the programme record, and regional bodies and governments keep their own mandates and decisions.

02Canvas

Scoping to review.

Design of the process, not a record of a run.
