Abstract:
STATUS OF LEGISLATION ON SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN RELATION TO THE HEALTH SYSTEM. The ecological transformation of healthcare relies on international, European, and national recommendations but lacks a binding legislative framework. The UN and WHO promote an integrated approach through emission reduction strategies and health system resilience. The European Union is gradually developing a regulatory framework, notably through the Green Deal and regulations on emissions and medical waste. In France, various laws and initiatives aim to reduce the carbon footprint of healthcare facilities, regulate waste management, and promote eco-friendly healthcare practices. Despite these advancements, implementation remains limited and largely depends on the commitment of healthcare sector stakeholders.
