ONE HEALTH

A MESSAGE FROM CONFERENCE DIRECTOR, MS JOSHILA LAL AND FPS PRESIDENT, MR REENAL CHAND ONE HEALTH On behalf of the organizing committee, I am delighted to invite you to the 2022 Fiji Pharmaceutical Society HALEON Annual Conference.

We had hoped that the dawn of 2022 will bring good news and allow us to reconnect again after the last 2 years of uncertainty, travel restrictions and lockdowns. Luckily this year, we can meet face to face and reconnect with colleagues, old friends and hope to find solutions to complex global issues. Often, a singular approach is not enough to tackle such significant, multi-layered problems such as climate change, rising noncommunicable diseases, zoonotic diseases and antimicrobial resistance to name a few.

Such complex issues call for cross-sectoral collaborative efforts of a multi-disciplinary workforce.

interest and response from contributors and like-minded educational fraternity. I sincerely offer my earnest gratitude to those who have contributed through their experience, expertise and/or research papers at the conference. I am confident that the comprehensive program will deliver the knowledge-rich conference experience that will support your learning and development.

We would also like to welcome back our long-term sponsors and thank them for their continued support and presence over the years and at the same time a big vanaka vakalevu to our Platinum Sponsor Haleon as a newcomer. Ÿ Ÿ Ÿ Ÿ

The COVID-19 pandemic showed us the power of collaboration and the resilience of the human spirit. Collaboration is key to success in this new world order. Now more than ever, we must learn to reach across our differences and work together with not only other healthcare workers but also with professionals from other disciplines. Our conference theme “One Health” enshrines a collaborative, multisectoral, and transdisciplinary approach and highlights that our health is closely linked to the health of animals, plants, and the environment.

We hope you are as excited as we are to be part of this action-packed program where you will hear perspectives from the multiple sectors involved in One Health. We hope that this conference provides a springboard for robust discussions which will galvanise us as pharmacists back into action.

It was very motivating to get a lot of keen
