The journal Healthcare is publishing a Special Issue on “Ethics, Health, and Natural Resources” to investigate some of the most interesting, important, and complex intersections of healthcare ethics and environmental ethics exploring questions like:

1. Which features of ethical deliberation about healthcare and the environment are most in need of transformation and why?
2. How ought we go about the project of transforming public debates to generate innovation in our ethical approaches to health and ecological stewardship?
3. Which ethical values are most critical for thinking powerfully about our obligations as individuals and as collectives to motivate conditions that support health?
4. Which ethical values, critical frameworks, or theoretical approaches are most helpful in negotiating tension among individual well-being, community well-being, and ecological well-being?
5. What are ethical value-based strategies for weighing short-term industrial and economic gains against short- and long-term consequences for health and ecology?

For further reading, please follow the link to the Special Issue Website at: http://www.mdpi.com/journal/healthcare/special_issues/ethics

The submission deadline is 15 September 2015. You may send your manuscript now or up until the deadline. Submitted papers should not be under consideration for publication elsewhere. I also encourage you to send a short abstract or tentative title to the Editorial Office in advance healthcare@mdpi.com.

The COST action ‘EURNEGVEC – EUROPEAN NETWORK FOR NEGLECTED VECTORS AND VECTOR-BORNE INFECTIONS’, TD1303  (http://www.eurnegvec.org/ ) had its 3rd management committee meeting and 2nd annual meeting themed ” THE 2ND CONFERENCE ON NEGLECTED VECTORS AND VECTOR BORNE DISEASES (EURNEGVEC) WITH MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE AND WORKING GROUP MEETINGS OF THE COST ACTION TD1303″ in Izmir (Kushadasi), Turkey on the MARCH 31 – APRIL 2, 2015.

The purpose of the meeting was to get an overview of what is going on in COST countries on the topic of vectors, pathogens and vector borne diseases in humans animals and vectors. It was attended by around 100 people from Europe, Israel and Turkey. Dr Sara Savic (http://niv.ns.ac.rs/?p=238&lang=en), the Working Group 2 leader in NEOH, gave a presentation on the scope, activities, work plan and members of NEOH in the session themed “One Health”, which was chaired by Prof. Dr David Modry. The presentation was well received, people were interested and in general welcomed this new One Health initiative. Questions raised enquired mostly about the ways of possible cooperation between two actions and also on possible publications among both actions; both activities warmly supported by COST.
