Biodiversity loss in hotspots of biodiversity is, among other socio-ecological factors, key to understand, prevent and react to future pandemics. However, despite this knowledge, the current COVID-19 crisis highlights the limitations of the implementation of One Health approaches. A main limitation is the lack of context-adapted solutions that stakeholders could easily implement on the field. To overcome this, BCOMING will build on past international projects to co-construct innovations with all stakeholders of biodiversity hotspots to reduce the risk of infectious disease emergence through biodiversity conservation and disease surveillance strategies. The activities of the project will be implemented in Europe and three tropical biodiversity hotspots in Southeast Asia, West Africa and the Caribbean and will have the following expected impacts: - BCOMING will lead to a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying the impact of biodiversity on the risk of infectious disease emergence - Participatory tools developed will facilitate the design of context-adapted biodiversity conservation and restoration strategies that reduce zoonotic risk - The surveillance strategies and pathogen detection tools developed will improve the capacities to detect emergences and stop future epidemics before they can turn into pandemics The consortium constitutes a strong multi-actor group of partners with a history of successful cooperation including academics from biomedical, environmental and social sciences, private companies, NGOs, local and international stakeholders who bring together the wide range of disciplines and expertise required to reach all the expected outcomes of the call. The embedment of BCOMING in the Prezode initiative will help to scale up the project innovations and disseminate cutting-edge socio-economic environmental strategies.no public description

在其他社会生态因素中，生物多样性热点地区的生物多样性丧失是了解、预防和应对未来大流行的关键。然而，尽管有这些知识，目前的新冠肺炎危机突显了实施同一健康方法的局限性。一个主要限制是缺乏利益攸关方可以在实地轻松实施的适应具体情况的解决方案。为了克服这一问题，bComing将在过去国际项目的基础上，与生物多样性热点的所有利益攸关方共同构建创新，通过生物多样性保护和疾病监测战略来降低传染病出现的风险。该项目的活动将在欧洲和东南亚、西非和加勒比海的三个热带生物多样性热点地区实施，并将产生以下预期影响：-即将到来的项目将导致更好地了解生物多样性对传染病出现风险的潜在影响机制-所开发的参与性工具将促进设计适应环境的生物多样性保护和恢复战略，以降低人畜共患病的风险-所开发的监测战略和病原体检测工具将提高在未来流行病可能演变为流行病之前发现紧急情况和阻止未来流行病的能力。该联盟是一个强大的多方合作伙伴集团，有成功合作的历史，包括生物医学、环境和社会科学的学者，私营公司、非政府组织、当地和国际利益攸关方将广泛的学科和专业知识汇聚在一起，以实现呼吁的所有预期结果。将bcoming嵌入Prezode倡议将有助于扩大项目创新并传播尖端的社会经济环境战略。
