The threats to our planet, humans and indeed all species run across one health, environmental health and planetary health. This working group was created to enable members of the three communities to collaborate across advocacy, research, education, and service to improve the health of the people and our planet. A central effort of this group is to identify initiatives that policymakers, communities or individuals can implement that will improve the well being of people and improve environmental outcomes. It also identifies advocacy issues and educational material in this field that can be shared with worldwide.
