The 3rd Quadripartite Executive Annual Meeting
The 3rd Executive Annual Meeting of the Quadripartite (QEAM3) will take place on the 25 – 27 March 2025 at the World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH) Headquarters in Paris.
The by-invitation-only meeting will include a day of high-level sessions for
decision-making and two days of technical sessions, bringing together senior leadership and technical teams from the four Quadripartite agencies—the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the World Health Organization (WHO), and WOAH—to enhance collaboration and advance the One Health agenda.
The QEAM serves as a platform to assess the progress of the previous year, define the strategic direction for the coming year, and align the Quadripartite joint work plan to ensure a harmonised One Health agenda. The meeting will focus on the Quadripartite strategic priorities for 2024-2025:
- implementation of the One Health Joint Plan of Actions (OH JPA)
- harnessing science and evidence
- maintaining political engagement and advocacy
- leveraging investment for One Health including the QPT Secretariat

The Quadripartite has reached significant milestones over the past year in each of these strategic priorities. Progress has been made in advancing the implementation of the OH JPA through regional workshops, capacity-building efforts, and international collaborations. Efforts have also focused on integrating One Health into relevant national policies, health systems, and global commitments.
Key achievements include strengthening political engagement, developing strategic and operational guidelines, and preparing for further implementation and investment in 2025. The upcoming meeting will be a valuable opportunity to take stock of these achievements, discuss challenges, and chart the way forward.
The QEAM is also the moment to handover the Chairmanship, which rotates every year. The next Chair will be FAO for 2025-2026.
Participation in this meeting is by invitation only. Selected participants will receive registration details by email.
