Empowering the Next Generation: Design and Impact of a Voluntary Planetary Health Module among Young Generations
Abstract
Planetary health is increasingly recognised as a vital framework for addressing contemporary global challenges encompasing climate change, environmental degradation, biodiversity loss, and their profound impacts on human health and well-being..The concept of planetary health emphasises that human health cannot be separated from the health of the Earth's natural systems.As environmental crises intensify, the need for informed, engaged, and empowered youth becomes increasingly urgent.This urgency rises from the fact that young people represent both a vulnerable population and a key agent of future change (1).
