This webinar introduces the Planetary Health Education Framework (PHEF) to the CUGH community. The PHEF is a transdisciplinary effort that aims to guide the education of global citizens, practitioners, and professionals able and willing to address the complex Planetary Health challenges of our world today.  The framework can be understood as a common foundational language that serves as the cornerstone for diverse education strategies. It intends to move beyond thematic areas of interest or a prescriptive list of competencies towards the recognition of the diverse inquiries (i.e, the why/affective, the what/representation, the how/strategic) that can shape Planetary Health Education.
