The pan-Mediterranean digital campaign to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the UNEP/MAP follows its route also in 2026 to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Barcelona Convention through a more and more rich constellation of events around the Mediterranean Sea

Following the 4th International One Health Conference (Rome, 2025), this side event builds on the shared outcomes of scientists, policymakers, and civil society working on integrated approaches to human, animal, and ecosystem health. The COP30 Position Paper synthesizes 10 key recommendations connecting Integral Ecology—as proposed in Laudato Si’—with the One Health and Water-Energy-Food-Ecosystems (WEFE) frameworks. The Mediterranean region, highly vulnerable to climate change, water scarcity, and ecological degradation, provides a living laboratory for demonstrating how One Health principles can guide sustainable, inclusive transitions.
