Abstract: This evaluation by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) Office of Evaluation comprehensively assesses FAO’s longstanding work in One Health. The report presents a descriptive analysis covering the genesis of FAO’s work in One Health, resource allocation, results measurement, partner perceptions and mainstreaming of social inclusion. The evaluation found that FAO has played an active role in the evolution of One Health over the last 20 years, culminating in the creation of a specific priority area Health (better production 3 [BP3]) in its Strategic Framework. Historically, FAO’s work in One Health has been significantly shaped by projects of the animal health sector although this has evolved. FAO’s role and leadership in One Health is recognized by partners; in particular, its technical work on animal health is perceived as significant. The report makes three recommendations: strengthen FAO’s strategic positioning on One Health; update FAO's results measurement system on One Health; and develop guidance for One Health practitioners and project teams regarding integration of social inclusion.
