SUBJECTS

INTRODUCTION
Recognizing the importance of urban safety and urban environmental management,
OHOW, Institute of Industrial Science, The University of Tokyo and has beenorganizing an ‘OHOW international Symposium’ since 2022 in Asian cities.
Recent outbreaks of COVID-19, phenomena such as species loss, habitat
degradation, pollution, invasive alien species, and global climate change arerecognized as fundamentally altering life on our planet from terrestrial wilderness tothe most densely populated cities. The concept ‘One Health, One World (OHOW)’
addressed as Manhattan principles in 2004 has been well recognized which is acomprehensive science of human and animal health, and the global environment
along with urban safety and urban environmental management.
The 1st OHOW symposium was held in Pattaya, Thailand in 2022. The symposium
topics are natural disasters and infectious disease, transportation, and humanmobility, structural and geotechnical engineering for human safety, ecology andenvironmental impact of human public health, Climate change, and green recovery,
remote sensing and GIS, etc. The symposium will include invited lectures byprofessors and oral presentations by students.
