Mekong One Health Innovation Program (MOHIP)

Michigan State University’s College of Agriculture and Natural Resources and Institute for Global Health are collaborating on the Mekong One Health Innovation Program (MOHIP), a three-year initiative (2022-2025) funded by the U.S. Department of State. This project aims to enhance health security in Laos, Thailand, and Vietnam by promoting a One Health approach. It connects U.S. health experts with Mekong researchers to foster a regional health security network. Key activities include monthly webinars, a short course on health security, funding for relevant research, and a research symposium in the project’s final year. Through these efforts, MOHIP aims to strengthen partnerships, support health policy development, and build a sustainable network for ongoing research and health solutions in the region. Collaborators include One Health University Networks in Laos, Thailand, and Vietnam.
