The Swedish Organization for Global Health (SOGH) is a student-led organization at Karolinska Institutet, primarily comprised of international students representing the Biomedical Science, Health Economics & Policy, Global Health and Public Health programmes. The international landscape of the organization means that there is a wide range of cultural backgrounds; the members of SOGH would be pleased to contribute to the translation of the planetary health materials in their native languages and perhaps mold them to the cultural contexts they’re familiar with. In addition, SOGH often organizes educational seminars and workshops, sometimes collaborating with other organizations in the public health and environmental sustainability sphere. We are hoping that being members of the network will help us connect with other organizations working at the nexus of health and the environment. We would love to get to know the other members of the PHA network and share ideas on how to more effectively apply the planetary health values to our current activities as well as potentially start new ones. Lastly, we are committed to promoting the PHA Next Generation Network to the members of our group. We are excited to join the network and see what opportunities await!

The SweetLab at Portland State University develops and implements “Internet of Things” sensor technologies designed to improve the collection of, and action on, data in global health programs.

The SweetLab joined the Planetary Health Alliance to increase collaborations across engineering, public health, social enterprise and public policy domains to further the positive impact of health and environmental programs.

We are SYNERGISTAS and for us the future is about creating value for everyone and forming an economy which respects planetary boundaries. Businesses that solve today’s problems and also social and economic challenges of the future are the ones that will survive and grow. Co-creating a better planet based on global sustainability and profitable innovation across teams, organisations, sectors and borders. For us, innovation is the profitable combination of existing knowledge, resources and technologies for progress and development for the benefit of all. We bring the right solutions for challenges in sustainable innovation, new business and markets to create impact. Using the power of synergies we make it happen.
