World: Advancing One Health implementation and investment: from country action to sustainable solutions

Country: World Source: World Health Organization The Quadripartite partners – the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the World Health Organization (WHO) and the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH) – highlighted a shared focus on implementation, science and investment at the 9th World One Health Congress, held in Lisbon, Portugal, from 4 to 7 September 2026. Across the joint sessions, the partners explored how stronger country implementation, scientific evidence and investment can help realize tangible One Health outcomes, supported by intersectoral collaboration, and reflecting the interconnectedness between the health of people, animals, plants and ecosystems. A key focus was implementation of the One Health Joint Plan of Action (OHJPA) at country level. Discussions at a session on the OHJPA explored how countries are translating the global framework into national action, while identifying practical enablers and barriers to implementation. Representatives from Malawi, Singapore and Uzbekistan shared their experiences of implementing One Health approaches, including their use of the OHJPA and its implementation guide developed by the Quadripartite. These experiences provided practical perspectives on how cross-sectoral coordination can be strengthened and adapted to national contexts. The partners also highlighted the importance of science and evidence in guiding One Health action. During its second term, the One Health High-Level Expert Panel (OHHLEP) has generated evidence and recommendations to support countries and partners in implementing One Health. During the Congress, OHHLEP presented its 10 recommendations addressing barriers, strengthening enabling conditions and advancing implementation. At the Congress, OHHLEP also presented its mapping of international instruments for One Health, examining how One Health is reflected in sector-specific global normative instruments, and identifying opportunities for greater coherence, collaboration and action. Bringing this work into the Congress discussions reinforced the role of strategic scientific advice in shaping effective One Health policies and action. At the Congress, investment and financing formed a third key strand of Quadripartite engagement. Sessions explored how to build the investment case for One Health, demonstrate return on investment and identify opportunities to mobilize resources, including through blended financing. A session jointly organized with the World Bank further explored approaches to financing One Health action. With over 1300 participants, the 9th World One Health Congress brought together researchers, policymakers, practitioners and other stakeholders from around the world to advance One Health science, policy and practice. Together, the joint sessions demonstrated the Quadripartite’s commitment to helping countries move from global commitments to practical action, underpinned by evidence and supported by sustainable investment.

The Seasons review – Portuguese pastoral offers poetic excavation of myth and mapping

The Seasons review – Portuguese pastoral offers poetic excavation of myth and mapping

The rugged roads and lush vegetation of southern Portugal are showcased in this weaving-together of disparate threads of history and landscape In a sea of doomsday ecological documentaries, Maureen Fazendeiro’s pastoral marvel is a sight for sore eyes. A solo debut feature for the Lisbon-based French director, this hybrid film studies the historical and geographical contours of Alentejo, a rural region in southern Portugal. The opening is set to a jaunty soundtrack of energetic percussion beats and twinkling organ notes, taking in the resplendent vistas of the landscape, with its rugged roads and lush vegetation. We see, too, a small archaeological tool hunt for ancient relics beneath layers of golden dust. Mirroring these acts of care and attention, Fazendeiro’s film takes the form of a cinematic excavation, fusing present-day tableaux with archival materials, folkloric legends with historical records. The abundant use of tracking shots not only takes in the wondrous biodiversity of Alentejo but also facilitates a fluid movement between separate epochs. Observational scenes of green hills, boundless blue skies and roaming livestock are overlaid with narrated excerpts from second world war-era letters written by German archaeologists Georg and Vera Leisner. Credited with producing the first inventory of megalithic monuments in Alentejo, the pair imbues their wartime correspondence with the joy of discovery and the sadness of exile. Continue reading...

The battle for AI search starts before the prompt, says Icelandair marketing chief

The battle for AI search starts before the prompt, says Icelandair marketing chief

The battle for visibility in AI-powered travel search begins long before a traveller types a prompt, according to Icelandair’s Director of Global Marketing, Gísli Brynjolfsson. His view is that airlines must build brands people already know, remember and feel something about if they want to be considered when customers turn to AI for travel advice. Brynjolfsson outlined the approach during a World Aviation Festival webinar on 7 September, titled “The secret behind Icelandair’s viral marketing campaigns”, ahead of his appearance at the event’s Marketing Summit in Lisbon next month.

Ethena Brings USDe and sUSDe to TRON, Expanding Digital Dollar Access Across Its Stablecoin Ecosystem

Ethena Brings USDe and sUSDe to TRON, Expanding Digital Dollar Access Across Its Stablecoin Ecosystem

Geneva and Lisbon, Sept. 12, 2026 – TRON DAO (“TRON”) and Ethena Labs (“Ethena”) today announced that USDe and sUSDe are live on the TRON network, expanding access to Ethena’s digital dollar products across one of the world’s largest stablecoin settlement networks.   Users can now bridge USDe and sUSDe to TRON through Stargate Finance and hold or transfer both assets across the network. Support across TRON’s core DeFi applications, including JustLend DAO and SUN.io, is expected to roll out over the coming weeks, with broader adoption across wallets, exchanges, and payment applications to follow. USDe on TRON will also remain connected to liquidity across Ethena’s other supported networks, supporting interoperability across Ethena’s broader multichain ecosystem.   USDe brings an additional dollar-denominated asset to TRON, while sUSDe gives TRON’s global user base exposure to Ethena’s rewards-bearing digital dollar product. In turn, Ethena connects with TRON’s global base of over 403 million accounts, where dollar-denominated assets already move at significant scale.    “Millions of people rely on the TRON network every day to make payments, save, and move value globally,” said Justin Sun, Founder of TRON. “Bringing USDe and sUSDe to TRON broadens the options available to users and further strengthens the network as decentralized infrastructure for everyday use.”   “TRON has a massive user base that already holds and moves digital dollars in significant size,” said Guy Young, Founder of Ethena Labs. “Bringing USDe and sUSDe to that ecosystem means those users can hold a dollar that accrues rewards on the network they already use. This integration is the latest step in our effort to bring our digital dollar products to as many people as possible, and we look forward to continuing to work with the TRON DAO team to find new ways to bring value to TRON’s users.”   The integration marks the latest step in USDe’s multichain expansion, with the asset now supported across more than a dozen networks and integrated with leading centralized exchanges and DeFi applications.   About Ethena Labs   Ethena Labs is the development team behind USDe and USDtb and a contributor to the Ethena protocol. Ethena’s USDe is the fastest growing USD-denominated crypto asset in history, encompassing integrations across some of the largest centralized exchanges and major DeFi applications. Ethena is backed by Fidelity, Franklin Templeton, Dragonfly, Binance Labs, Bybit, and OKX among others.   Media Contact Nate Johnson Ethena-August@AugustCo.com  About TRON DAO TRON DAO is a community-governed DAO dedicated to accelerating the decentralization of the internet via blockchain technology and dApps.   Founded in September 2017, the TRON blockchain has experienced significant growth since its MainNet launch in May 2018.
