Kumamoto University will contribute to the PHA network through identification and visualization, and development of natural resources, especially focusing on useful plants. We are very much looking forward to collaborating with PHA members.

At the UPC-LAB, we believe in a global approach to address planetary health. Our technology, operational worldwide, both monitors ocean and rainforest biodiversity and thus provides a unique insight of the global dynamic balance of Nature. Integrating this data in how human health is managed worldwide within the Planetary Health Alliance objectives is a true scientific challenge that cannot be addressed without a strong commitment and a multi-disciplinary approach.

The University of Milan is a public, multidisciplinary teaching and research institution that offers 8 Faculties, 2 Schools, 136 study courses, 31 Doctoral Programmes and 63 Specialisation Schools.

As the responsibility of higher education (HE) is to support sustainability competence development for students, also Laurea University of Applied Sciences, Finland, educates future social and healthcare professionals with a strong understanding of the importance of inner and outer sustainability, emphasizing the transformative capacity of planetary health and planetary wellbeing promotion. With its educational and RDI activities, Laurea provides different co-operation and networking possibilities for HE and PHA members to make a difference for a better tomorrow that benefits and nurtures our shared planet and its people.

The LBG Open Innovation in Science Center is committed to advance Planetary Health in Austria, by supporting transdisciplinary research with civil society involvement in Planetary Health. For this goal, we cooperate with Austrian research organizations, funding agencies and policy makers, to create support and training to make the Austrian research and health system oriented toward Planetary Health solutions. The LBG OIS Center also supports projects around the topics of health and sustainability.

Living Laudato Si’ Philippines believes that the health of our peoples depend on the health of our planet which all life and livelihoods come from. The interconnectedness of each living and non-living things contirubute to the overall well-being of humanity. It is necessary to bring back the equilibrium, the balance of the wild ecosystems and the lives which depend on them.

The London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine is renowned for its research, postgraduate studies and continuing education in public and global health. LSHTM has an international presence and collaborative ethos, and is uniquely placed to help shape health policy and translate research findings into tangible impact.

The LIU Department of Public Health seeks to provide cutting-edge, science-based solution to the ongoing convergent climate change and public health crises. The department includes training in Planetary Health in its CEPH-accredited curriculum, fosters participation in PHA meetings, seminars and workshops and, most of all, conducts innovative research in climate science and public health. Our students are eager to take up the challenge of a more sustainable and healthy world.

Invest in capacity building or people representing the medical profession, academia, media, youth, civil society, and multiple small and medium-level organizations representing the grassroots.
Conduct research and disseminate the findings for contribution towards strategy and policy formulation.

Gain and share international experience and expertise with current and prospective stakeholders in India.

The growing awareness of the health risks of the changes in the Earth’s natural systems calls for further research into the interdependencies of linked human and natural systems. The causal links between environmental change and human health are complex because they are often indirect, displaced in space and time, and dependent on a number of changing forces. Current research at UM integrates and models the development of climate change solutions with health risks and other challenges for local communities. UM also models and analyzes local ecosystem services in combination with health effects. We do this through integrated modelling, GIS approaches and big data analysis. Obtaining a thorough and integrated understanding of this complex and still undervalued nexus nature-human, and critically evaluating suitable solutions, will be necessary in the coming years, and will form the core of this research cluster at Maastricht University.

The MacEwan Faculty of Nursing vision focuses on nurses making a difference in the health of global communities in keeping with global health priorities and the Sustainable Development Goals.

Interdisciplinary Global Mental Health Innovation (IGMHI) is a network of experienced practitioners, researchers, educators, and activists working across sectors and disciplines to maximize health and well-being in pursuit of durable and equitable social justice, planetary health, and social determinants of health. Utilizing interdisciplinary approaches across the global Humanitarian-Development-Peace Nexus, we effectively respond with communities impacted by adversity and trauma related to disasters, violence, conflict, and migration. We provide community-engaged, culturally responsive, trauma-informed services that are both adaptive to immediate implementation and foundational to future innovations. The foundations of innovation through IGMHI intentionally advance intersectoral and intergenerational connectedness from individual health and well-being through communities, including global ecosystems and planetary health.
