Abstract

Veterinary science, once narrowly defined as the clinical care of animals and the management of livestock, has undergone a profound transformation in recent decades. Today, it occupies a central role in addressing some of the most pressing global challenges, including zoonotic disease emergence, antimicrobial resistance, food security, animal welfare, and environmental sustainability. This evolution is best captured through the lens of the One Health framework, an integrative approach that acknowledges the inextricable links between human health, animal health, and ecosystem health (WHO, 2021) .
