"As the interdependence of animal health systems with human health, livelihoods and ecosystems has never been more apparent, therebrand comes at a crucial moment," according to an article on their website. "The need for international coordination and mobilisation is clear, not only to those working in the global health sector, but also increasingly to policymakers and the general public."

Since then, the organization has had 182 members as of 2018.
