About CATA-Earth
“Catalysing Transformative Change in Planetary Health Education”
The Planetary Health field seeks to understand the inextricable link between health and the environment. Embedding planetary health education in curricula is urgently needed to deliver new transdisciplinary, intersectoral solutions for communities facing complex planetary challenges. The “Catalysing Transformative Change in Planetary Health Education” (CATA-Earth) project brings together 6 Higher Education Institutions from The Netherlands, Spain, Bangladesh and Indonesia, collaborating with 4 local stakeholder organisations. The overall objective of CATA-Earth is to build capacity for designing and delivering innovative community-driven planetary health education in climate-vulnerable regions in Asia and to create a new generation of change makers with actionable planetary health knowledge and skills.
