A first roadmap of actions has been established, constituting a concrete and structured basis for the next phase of PREZODE OHANA.
On 20–22 May 2026, PREZODE OHANA held its 2nd in-person workshop in Noumea, New Caledonia, in the Pacific Community (SPC) headquarters to review and validate the PREZODE OHANA One Health Impact Framework and begin transforming it into a practical roadmap for implementation. The same group of stakeholders (governmental representatives in Animal and Public Health from six Pacific Island Countries and Territories — Fiji, French Polynesia, New Caledonia, Samoa, Tonga, and Vanuatu) attended to this meeting on-site, while representatives of the Quadripartite also participated online (WOAH, WHO and FAO).
During this 2nd and final workshop, participants reviewed and refined the draft PREZODE OHANA One Health Impact Framework for the Pacific region as well as the proposed activities and interventions, consolidating them into a structured matrix of action groups considering national and regional priorities, ownership, coordination and support. The resulting first roadmap of actions constitutes a concrete and structured basis for the next phase of PREZODE OHANA, which will be further developed into future concept notes and funding proposals.
A structured co-design process
This work follows an efficient co-designed process. The PREZODE OHANA 1st in-person workshop (22–25 February 2026, Suva, Fiji) initiated the regional mapping and proposed and initial framework. This first stage was followed by a series of three online webinars held with Pacific Island country representatives to draft a One Health Impact Framework for the region. Each webinar focused on a specific step of the ImpresS ex ante process (developed by CIRAD), enabling participants to work step-by-step and efficiently towards a fully co-created impact pathway.
The 1st online session revisited and refined the vision developed during the PREZODE OHANA 1st in-person workshop. Participants reviewed the materials, validated the long-term aspiration, and defined the concrete impacts the region aims to achieve under PREZODE OHANA. Discussion focused on aligning expectations across countries and clarifying the major transformative changes expected over the 10–15-year horizon, while ensuring consistency with existing or draft national One Health action plans.
During the 2nd online session, building on the agreed-upon impacts, participants identified the main barriers that currently prevent the realisation of the vision. Through facilitated group work, they specified stakeholders who need to change, and the types of changes required. This session deepened the diagnostic analysis initiated during the problem-tree exercise and grounded the impact pathway in real stakeholder dynamics.
The 3rd and final session focused on translating the necessary stakeholder changes into concrete outputs and outcomes. Participants outlined the products, services, and interventions needed to enable those changes and began to cluster them into strategic directions for regional action. This step completed the logic chain necessary for the full impact pathway.
Partnership-Driven Facilitation
PREZODE One Health Action in the Pacific (OHANA) is facilitated by the Connecting Pacific Nations Towards the Development of One Health Impact Frameworks project, led by the University of Queensland and funded by the French Embassy in Australia, under the leadership of Professor Ricardo J. Soares Magalhães and Dr. Léa Indjein. Workshops and online webinars were co-facilitated by Dr. Flavie Goutard and Dr. Tu Tu Zaw Win (CIRAD).
