The One Health PACT consortium is a research collaboration that brings together experts from various disciplines across the Netherlands. We aim to gain systemic understanding of mosquito-borne diseases and of how their emergence and transmission is influenced by major environmental and social changes.
The Netherlands is particularly vulnerable to outbreaks of viral diseases transmitted by mosquitoes due to its water-dominated landscape, dense humans and livestock population and the expected establishment of new mosquito species such as Aedes albopictus. Separated and reaction-based research efforts into the numerous factors interplaying in the emergence of viral outbreaks, however results in disconnected research findings and critical factors unstudied. The One Health PACT is a research collaboration of experts in a wide variety of fields relevant for infectious disease outbreaks, ranging from ecological and climate modelling to medical entomology, virology and public health.
The One Health PACT project takes place within a multidisciplinary research field. The aim of our project is to extensively look into all aspects of preparedness of potential arboviral introduction and spread. To reach this goal, many partners from different fields are involved. Among those partners are the universities, where our PhD students and Post-doc are located. In addition to that, the NWO financed this project together with several co-financiers that all provide their expertise in different research fields. Lastly, there are national and international collaborating partners involved in the project by sharing data and knowledge with our researchers. An overview of all the partners is given below.
On the news page of our website you can find updates on our projects and news articles on exciting findings and events within our project.

One of my primary focuses is overwintering of mosquitoes and arboviruses, such as West Nile virus and Usutu virus 1/4
Hi! I'm @BlomRody and this week it's my turn to take over the #OHPACT Twitter account. In my PhD @OneHealthEnto @WUR, I focus on mosquito distribution, activity and ecology. 1/3
