In this talk, Dr. Gehlbach will explore the unique characteristics, challenges, and opportunities that are intrinsic to Planetary Health education. Without comprehending how the balance of Earth’s systems impact human health, it is hard to imagine how people will change their attitudes, behaviors, and policy priorities in ways that will alter our current trajectory. Planetary Health education encompasses multiple pedagogical tensions. To the extent that this tension can be thoughtfully navigated, learners across the globe are likely to become more engaged in the collective action problem of protecting the environment, addressing climate change, and improving the planet’s health.
