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.

Chess: Uzbekistan favourites for Olympiad but ageing England given gloomy outlook

Chess: Uzbekistan favourites for Olympiad but ageing England given gloomy outlook

England Open squad have internal tensions but the women’s team blends rising talent with experience Uzbekistan, the host nation, are the favourites to win the 208-team biennial chess Olympiad in Samarkand , which has its opening ceremony on Tuesday, and its first round (of 11) on Wednesday. The defending champions, India, China and the US are Uzbekistan’s most dangerous rivals. India would have been the open Olympiad favourites but for the shaky form of the world champion, 20-year-old Gukesh Dommaraju, who was the top board gold medallist in Budapest two years ago but is likely to play lower down the order in Samarkand. USA are led by the world No 3 Fabiano Caruana and the world No 5 Wesley So, but their lower boards, including the variable Hans Niemann, look more vulnerable. Continue reading...

A Growing Global Push for Free Education for Every Child

A Growing Global Push for Free Education for Every Child

Click to expand Image Students in a pre-primary school classroom in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, 2021.  © 2021 Bede Sheppard / Human Rights Watch The global push to make free education accessible for every child gained momentum, as 81 states met at the United Nations in Geneva on August 31 to September 2 to discuss a proposed treaty that could strengthen children’s right to education and remove financial barriers that keep many out of school. The new optional protocol to the Convention on the Rights of the Child would recognize early childhood care and education as part of the right to education, guarantee at least one year of free public pre-primary education, and strengthen the promise of free public secondary education. The initiative has been led by Sierra Leone, the Dominican Republic, and Bulgaria, which already provide free education for their children from pre-primary through secondary. During the three-day meeting, Guatemala became the 62nd country to publicly support the initiative. However, there were differences about next steps: Some states including Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bulgaria, Chile, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Georgia, Peru, South Africa, and Uruguay supported moving forward to draft the treaty while others, including Austria, Bangladesh, Belgium, Egypt, and Slovenia, called for more time to consider different options. Children played a central role at the meeting. Child delegates from all five regions shared recommendations based on consultations with more than 80 children worldwide. Tuition-free education is not genuinely free if families still need to pay for transport, uniforms, school materials, and other essential costs, the delegates said. Free pre-primary education gives children a stronger start and children from disadvantaged families a fairer chance to succeed. Free secondary education can change the course of a child’s life by reducing the likelihood of child marriage and opening doors to further education and decent work. For children with disabilities, removing financial and practical barriers can enable them to participate fully and learn alongside their peers. Further consultations will take place before the next formal meeting in October 2027. The Sierra Leone chair called for continued review of the proposals for the treaty and expert advice, while stressing that children should continue to have a meaningful, safe, and inclusive role in the next stages. The momentum now needs to become action. Governments should move this process forward so that millions of children are not left waiting for the education to which they are entitled.

Air Serbia plans new long-haul service in 2027

Air Serbia plans new long-haul service in 2027

Air Serbia plans to introduce a new long-haul service in 2027, with the carrier’s CEO, Jiri Marek, confirming that another intercontinental route is in the pipeline. “What I can reveal is that there will be a new long-haul route, but I will not yet reveal which one”, Mr Marek said in an interview with the Serbian public broadcaster RTS. The comment came after Mr Marek was asked about the possibility of further expansion in China, where Air Serbia currently serves both Guangzhou and Shanghai. However, he did not indicate whether the new route would be in China or another market. The airline is expected to disclose its new destinations for 2027 by the end of the month, alongside planned frequency increases on parts of its existing network. A new long-haul service in 2027 would result in a sixth consecutive year of long-haul expansion for the airline. The airline has previously been in negotiations or expressed interest to serve Miami, Beijing and, most recently, an undisclosed seasonal long-haul route as well. Air Serbia is also tipped for flights between Belgrade and Tashkent in Uzbekistan. The route is expected to be among the topics discussed during Uzbek President Shavkat Mirziyoyev’s official visit to Serbia today, with transport identified as one of the priority areas of talks between the two countries. Mr Marek noted that Air Serbia maintains both five- and ten-year development plans, which are continuously updated. “When a destination becomes profitable, we certainly open it”, he said. The CEO added that the airline also reacts to opportunities created by changes in the market, citing its decision to introduce flights from Niš to Vienna and Malta after Ryanair withdrew from the two routes. Commenting on the upcoming year, the CEO said, “We have a lot of news for next year. Of course, the biggest opportunity for us is Expo. Expo represents a huge opportunity to promote Belgrade, Serbia and Air Serbia. We will also celebrate our centenary next year, and there are some other anniversaries as well, but more on those later. There will also, of course, be new destinations, which we will announce towards the end of September, as well as increased frequencies across the network. We have a lot of news, but I wouldn’t reveal everything just yet. For now, I think Expo, the centenary and the new destinations are certainly the main things”. EX-YU Aviation News

80,000-year-old “arrowheads” rewrite human history

80,000-year-old “arrowheads” rewrite human history

Archaeologists have identified tiny 80,000-year-old projectile points in Uzbekistan that may have been used like arrowheads. Their size, design, and impact damage closely resemble weapons found much later at a Homo sapiens site in France. The discovery suggests sophisticated projectile technology may have appeared in Central Asia long before modern humans became firmly established in Europe, potentially rewriting a major chapter of human migration.
