Planetary Health Challenge is a recent grassroots organization in North of Italy with the goal of tackling air pollution in the region working with local communities and a transdisciplinary pool of experts. Our first steps are about action research, radical listening, and co-construction of a theory of change. The hope is to reinforce current CSOs and other actors’ ongoing efforts for air quality from a systemic perspective. We believe in the dialogue between diverse epistemologies and diverse actors for shared engagement for climate action.

We have many projects, here are some that we would like help publicizing: https://www.ebtox.org/; https://exposomemoonshot.org/; https://www.wc13rio.org/
We also look forward to hearing from how we can help other organizations with their projects and events!

S Rajaratnam School of International Studies, Nanyang Technological University Singapore is a graduate school and think-tank focusing on strategic studies and security affairs. Within the school, the Centre for Non-Traditional Security Studies examines issues such as climate security, biosecurity, and food security, among others. Planetary health is an emerging programme in the centre that aims to produce academic and policy research to bring together issues of climate, biodiversity, pollution, and health in Singapore and the Asia-Pacific region.

PHA’s efforts can be especially helpful in information sharing across members, particularly to keep up with the latest state of knowledge in Planetary Health. We would love to see more linking of members with funding opportunities to increase the scaling needed for global and local impact (this is likely something that our local partners could benefit from, and that we could support them in). Lastly, the current PHA member map is useful but PHA could examine additional ways to bring members together in more specific ways; for example, long-term we could envision the potential for applied science and learning experiences on the ground in settings where TNC and other PHA member institutions are working to solve locally-relevant challenges that require multi-sectoral collaboration.

We expect to collaborate with planetary health, contribute to environmental sustainability and human well-being through research, education, and community engagement, and align with the Sustainable Development Goals. We aim to share knowledge, strengthen interdisciplinary networks, and co-develop innovative solutions to advance global health and sustainability.
