Teaching planetary health to medical students in the United Kingdom: A snapshot
In 2022 a new curriculum for medical students at universities in the U.K. was mandated which included teaching planetary health. In this paper the authors relate their experiences of introducing a sustainability agenda two years before this time, using planetary boundaries as a teaching tool at the Manor Hospital in Walsall, U.K. Planetary health is taught with constant relevance to how it can affect health and society. The content of the teaching material evolved over a few months until very positive feedback from students was received, who also suggested that more should be done to raise awareness of sustainability in their university. Finally challenges to this innovative venture are discussed.
