The Planetary Health is an interdisciplinary field of study that aims to understand and address the complex interactions between human activities and the natural systems that support life on Earth. The field of planetary health is focused on understanding how human activities, such as land use, pollution, and climate change, are affecting the planet’s ecosystems and how these changes are impacting human health and well-being. The goal of planetary health is to develop strategies and policies that promote sustainable development and protect the health of both people and the planet. The Rockefeller Foundation has been actively involved in the promotion of planetary health, through research, funding and partnerships with organizations.
