Special Report: Planetary Health in Asia

Around the world, a wave of hope and leadership is transforming how we address the interconnected challenges of the Earth crisis.

In East and Southeast Asia, this movement is gaining remarkable momentum, as communities, government agencies, and hundreds of leaders embrace the principles of Planetary Health. These efforts are paving the way for the potential launch of a Planetary Health East Asia Regional Hub and building on the foundational work of the South and Southeast Asia Regional Hub, which has already fostered meaningful collaboration. This growing network signals a profound shift in how some of the world’s most influential regions are approaching the interconnected challenges facing human health and well-being on a rapidly changing planet.
