Abstract

This article, based on a graduation thesis in environmental management, seeks to publicize the importance of responsible ownership of animals, such as cats, in the prevention of sporotrichosis disease, highlighting the interdependence between human, animal and environmental health. A literature review was carried out, showing the real importance of environmental education in the prevention of sporotrichosis and presenting some concepts of single health, responsible ownership and the need to change human behavior to mitigate environmental and health impacts. In addition, biosafety practices in the management of sporotrichosis were mentioned, seeking behavioral modification and the adoption of preventive measures against the disease. The results pointed to the elaboration of an educational material aimed at the proper management of healthy cats and an informative material about sporotrichosis; followed by the conclusions of the research.
