Purpose: Human health is inexplicably connected to animal health and will continue to do so. However, because of the continued effects they have on each other, there is a need to continually find out the adverse effects this comes with. The general objective of the study was to understand impact of animal health on human health in East Africa and possible strategies to mitigate them.
Methodology: The paper used a desk study review methodology where relevant empirical literature was reviewed to identify main themes and to extract knowledge gaps.
Findings: There is need for concerted efforts to build not only on adopted human adaptation strategies but also help them reduce current vulnerability as well as build future resilience.
Unique Contribution to Theory and Practice: There is need to engage communities to understand their levels of vulnerability and design their own sustainable adaptation action plans. The one health paradigm is gaining currency among natural and social scientists, practicing health professionals and, increasingly, wider society. The concept essentially is that the health of humans, animals and also the environment are inextricably interlinked. It follows therefore that research that impacts on one of these components has the potential to influence all
