Planetary Health in Nursing: A Transdisciplinary Equity-Centered Approach

Planetary Health is an evolving and essential field requiring global attention. Nursing must take up the challenge and responsibility to work alongside other disciplines to ensure the health of the global community and the protection of the planet. To act, it is important that a transdisciplinary equity-centered approach be incorporated if we are to address and be responsive to supporting equity-informed solutions for human vitality. This article discusses and compares the Pan American Health Organization Equity Commission's Conceptual Framework and the Planetary Health Education Framework, a project of the Planetary Health Alliance.
