we hope you will join us together to extend our planetary health engagement
to the whole UM community and beyond.
Planetary health is a solutions-oriented, transdisciplinary field and social movement focused on analyzing and addressing the impacts of human disruptions to Earth’s natural systems on human health and all life on Earth.
Everything is connected —
what we do to the world comes back to affect us, and not always in ways that we would expect.
Understanding and acting upon these challenges call for massive collaboration
across disciplinary and national boundaries to safeguard our health.
However, many of our best efforts today remained siloed, fragmented, or rivalrous.
This initiative will take all of us to achieve Planetary Health.
We envisage that Planetary Health education will contribute
to the positive outcomes for the biosphere,
overcoming the Planetary Health challenges before us.

We believe that higher education institutions (HEIs) play
an important role in the development of societies.
Universities are educating tomorrow’s citizens, thought leaders,
decision-makers, business leaders and innovators.
