TERMS OF REFERENCE FOR AN INTERNATIONALCONSULTANT
Developing a technically and politically feasible strategy to reduce the risk of zoonosis
diseases related to the hunting, trafficking, wildlife farming and consumption of wildlife in Viet
Nam, and preparing an Implementation Project Document detailing how to reduce the risk of
pandemics by employing preventative One Health approaches using systems methodologies
Project: Nature for Health Viet Nam Scoping Phase 1
I. BACKGROUND
Nature for Health (N4H) is a global initiative, working nationally to reduce health risks through
environmental determinants. Initial work will focus on strengthening the environmental and preventive
aspects of One Health (OH). N4H aims to contribute an improved understanding of the links between
the health of people, animals, and ecosystems, to mainstream them into public health approaches
and to support decision makers and relevant actors to make use of relevant evidence to help prevent
future pandemics and enhance planetary health.
N4H was initiated by the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Nuclear Safety
and Consumer Protection (BMUV) with a contribution of €50 million. BMUV is one of eight N4H Partners
including the Convention on Biological Diversity, United Nations Development Programme, United Nations
Environment Programme, World Health Organization, World Organisation for Animal Health, International
Union for the Conservation of Nature, and EcoHealth Alliance, who bring extensive multisectoral and diverse
One Health practical experiences. N4H is hosted by the UN Multi-Partner Trust Fund Office (MPTFO) and the
Secretariat is based at UNEP in Nairobi, Kenya.
In its first eight years, N4H will work in three overlapping phases in 18 low
- and middle-income
countries or regions. For its first phase of work, N4H employed an open call to government agencies
for Expressions of Interest. Selection criteria centered on the risk of zoonotic disease spillover,
political commitment to collaboration and OH, and potential as an N4H partner. In Phase I, N4H will
work in Ecuador, Ghana, Mongolia, Rwanda, Viet Nam and Zambia, and operational work will start in
The operational work in each country will be structured in two stages.
The scoping stage is designed as a systemic inquiry and will conclude when a co-developed
Implementation Project Document (IPD) is produced that details the activity plan and budget. The
scoping stage is a limited exercise of about 3 months (possibly up to 6 months) and completed by
the end of 2024.
The implementation stage is expected to last 2-3 years and be based on country interests and
priorities, as agreed in the scoping stage, which support the N4H overall outcome areas:
- Assess: enhancing evidence on links between biodiversity, climate change, and health for
better decision-making
- Build: supporting governments to develop effective policies, structures, and frameworks
for preventative OH
- Enable: building capacity, knowledge management, and advocacy to implement such
policies and frameworks
- Sustain: establishing sustainable partnerships and governance
The tropical Asia region where Viet Nam is located is regarded as one of the five global "hot spots"
for emerging infectious diseases (EIDs) in humans and animals. Since 2003, Viet Nam has endured
considerable human and economic impacts from zoonotic EIDs, including SARS and Avian Influenza,
as well as agricultural losses from livestock diseases estimated to exceed one billion USD. The
COVID-19 pandemic caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which leads to severe acute respiratory
syndrome in humans, is a prime example since 2019. Human movement, intricate value chains, and
trade in livestock, wildlife, and their products all contribute to the heightened risk of zoonotic
transmission and spread of disease.
Building on and expanding earlier efforts, the One Health Partnership (OHP) was inaugurated in
March 2016. With the endorsement of the government, the Ministries of Agriculture and Rural
Development, Health, and Natural Resources and Environment, and 28 international and domestic
partners collaborated to develop and sign the OHP Framework for combating zoonotic epidemics
from animals to humans for the period 2021-2025. The overarching goal of the OHP is to enhance
Viet Nam’s capacity to address zoonotic infectious disease threats at the human-animal-ecosystem
interface (including livestock, wildlife, and other species). It consolidates national and international
governmental and non-governmental OH stakeholders under the leadership of the government.
Numerous agencies and organizations have participated in implementing the OHP Framework for
relationship between wildlife-related activities like hunting, trading, rearing, rescuing, and releasing
wild animals and human health and environmental aspects. These efforts can be construed as the
initial steps in implementing the N4H approach in Viet Nam. The establishment of
